Goals

Did you meet your goals? Are you happy with how the project went?

The celebration of Wikipedia 20 in Tunis was a great success in view of the health situation. We followed the sanitary protocol and no one had a problem after the event.

The participants enjoyed this reunion in person and it was an opportunity to discuss with the Tunisian community about the group's activities. We received a few guests who were interested in wikimedia projects and we had the opportunity to receive a few other guests online.

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?

Attendance, partnerships and media coverage: we were able to bring together some of our regular members who showed their enthusiasm and their willingness to resume normal activities of workshops and wiki projects.

Potential partners were present and we were able to sign partnerships with them concerning free knowledge projects.

Media coverage was a success, we shared our event on social media and it was very appreciated.

What did not work so well?

Some technical issues to live broadcast the meeting.

What would you do differently next time?

Prepare in advance the attendance (presentations, speakers...)
