Learning

Projects 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?
  • The live event lasted 1 and a half hour and this was the time set for it.
  • The participants were helpful during the preparation sessions and I met with them many times before the live event.
  • The webinar met with good response, and the work team was offered to repeat the webinar, and this is what we will work to achieve in the coming period.
• What did not work so well?
  • Technical problems due to recording on the Zoom and broadcasting on Alkompis platforms.
• What would you do differently next time?
  • We did a test session to make sure of the technical issues, it would have been better if we tried it more than once.

Anything else you want to share about your project?

In addition to achieving the webinar its objectives with regard to the #WikiForHumanRights 2021 and Sdgs, it was also a successful opportunity to introduce the Wikimedia Movement to many outside the WM about the activities and work of the movement. I encourage interested Wikimedians to do such a webinar.
