Kiwix was analysed, detailed explanation on how it works with less paperworks, what to be done to make it work, how fiscal sponsorship provides admin support. Also got to learn why some bank accounts in some countries might not have access to those scholarships because of restrictions.


SPIF #Art4Good:

I got to learn what different colors portray, how an image can speak a thousand words, how different volunteers are making artworks which depict meanings to create awareness for mental health and depression. This session was enlightening because awareness for mental health and depression is important because people are going a lot through stress faced on a daily basis, problems faced in several countries. Creating this awareness makes people voice out, and seek advice from necessary personnels and experts in that field.
