This project is aimed at recruiting and preparing vibrant adults for the tasks ahead. It will also serve as an avenue for wikimedia publicity within and around the academic community of Federal College of Education Zaria. And I therefore endorse that this project is worth investing on. Friday musa (talk) 18:45, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

==Not Funded==

Hello @Umar-askira thank you for applying for the rapid fund grant. We reviewed your grant application and decided to not fund your application at this time. We strongly recommend that the team coordinates with the other team working on this project - WIkimedia skills for Librarians in Kaduna State University, Kaduna - Nigeria. This project plan has very similar activities with this proposal and targets the same communities you are seeking to engage.

Here is some feedback that you might all consider as you work towards a coordinated and potentially more impactful effort;

• While the intention is clear, it would strengthen your proposal to specify the expected outcomes in more detail. For instance, what specific topics do you hope participants would edit or create articles on? It is important to have clearly defined and achievable goals.
• Your plan to conduct an awareness drive, training sessions, and an edit-a-thon is commendable. To enhance your proposal, consider elaborating on your strategies for engaging participants before, during, and after the activities. How will you maintain their interest and motivation?
• Consider providing more details regarding the nature of collaboration with the groups mentioned. How will they support your project? Will they provide mentoring, technical assistance, or resources?
• Although the project involves students, it's important to consider their safety and well-being. Even if they are not minors, ensure that you have measures in place to create a safe and respectful environment during the events. Mention any codes of conduct or guidelines that will be followed to ensure a positive experience for all participants.

Best of luck with your project!
