La communauté guinéenne était enthousiaste à l'idée de mettre en œuvre ce plan de financement annuel et ceci a consisté a donner plus de voie au nouveau et a leurs responsabiliser tous en suivant les ajustements périodiques selon vos recommandation.

Avec cette stratégie nous ne souffrons plus des retard de financement, se financement nous rend plus autonome et nous permettent de travailler plus facilement avec nos communauté respective à Conakry et à l’intérieur de pays cella nous rend donc plus efficace.

2. Were there any strategies or approaches that you felt were effective in achieving your goals?

Oui, nous avons essayer de donner plus de chance aux communautés hors de la capital en faisant plus d'activités en provinces pour mettre en avant leurs travail en rapport avec le plan stratégique du mouvement guinéen. Ceci permettra a court termes a l'équipe central d'accentue les formation physique pour les équipes en provinces mais aussi à long termes leurs permettre d'avoir des équipes de travail autonomes dans ses provinces ou régions.

Nous avons aussi donner un accent sur la recherche de fonds hors Wikimédia Fondation avec les microfinances pour soutenir des projets exclus du fond de soutient général et ceci a permis de booster des initiative individuel en faveur de notre communauté.

3. Would you say that your project had any innovations? Are there things that you did very differently than you have seen them done by others?

En donnant plus de responsabilité avec nos communautés a la basse nous étions contraint de faire plus de suivie et de formation improviser pour nos bénévoles. Ceci a susciter la mise en place de :

  • don de connexion a nos meilleur recrue
  • La responsabilité individuel des bénévole expérimenter pour la formation continue des nouveaux
  • La coorganisassions ou la participation a des activités éducatif ou culturel de nos partenaire
  • la mise en place des sessions hebdomadaire avec nos partenaire institutionnel et étatiques partout en Guinée

Tous en tenant compte de l'ajustement financier apporter au plan de fonctionnement disponible. Tous en maintenant la gestion centraliser du financement du groupe.

Grace a notre engagement a participer au partager de la connaissance libre, nous avons énormément investie sur les médias sociaux (Facebook, twitter, Instagram et LinkedIn) et traditionnel (télévision et radiaux dans chaque régions visiter). Chose qui nous ont permis d'atteindre un public mixtes de tout âges et de genres sellons les initiatives aborder. Nous aurons un public plus jeunes sur les faits divers notamment le sport et la culture populaire et plus de scientifiques sur des campagne livresque et universitaire.
