Learning
editProjects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:
- What worked well?
- We had a team set up to handle the project, each person responsible for a certain task, this helped us regulate and run the project.
- There was a lot of social media publicity around it on all our social media platforms and community pages on WhatsApp.
- We mapped out the community members that the program may benefit and we shared the information with them so that they can participate in it.
- What did not work so well?
- We had a low turnout with the online session, most people preferred the physical sessions.
- There was low engagement on the part of the participants that joined virtually, their participation could not be monitored as much as the participants who joined in physically.
- What would you do differently next time?
- In the future online sessions will focus more on the participants ensuring they are following and encouraging them to share their screens to make sure they are participating.
- More publicity around the online sessions to encourage more people to join in.
