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?
Indeed alot of things worked well, all thanks to God.
1. I'm able to reach all my targets and goals. 2. We held a zoom Conference, with the doctors, organisers and participants. Where alot of experience where shared. And we used that opportunity to encourage editing Wikipedia, reading Wikipedia pages, and also helping the Hausa Wikipedia by the present doctors. 3. We were oppurtune to meet alot of influencers, doctors and celebrities. With the help of the project. 4. The project has gone viral within our community. This is as a result of large editors and influencers in the campaign.
5. We we're able to reach Large number of people via WhatsApp and Facebook.
- What did not work so well?
Well as we all not want it but also a number of things doesn't work as planned.
1. We faced problem with the damaged graphic images, this is as a result of computer crashed by the designer.
2. There's this serious problem of inflation currently now I'm Nigeria. Almost everything consistently keep rising and adding cost.
3. We also faced problem with petroleum hoarding, you rarely find petroleum and when you find it, it doubles it cost.
4. And we used petroleum thought-out the campaign this is because till date. There no light. What I mean by no light is there no light as before. Any area that gets 4 or 5 hours light now are getting 2 or 3. This is because of some operational failure as the government says and yet there are still working on it.
- What would you do differently next time?
Yes! Here we will be engaging with working with alot of hausa Wikipedia Editors. I mean we will be engaging in alot of group work.
And also we will be engaging in long term grands. Where by we will be working with people for a longer times grands.
