Goals

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

We believe that we achieve all of our goals. We got some great photos and our talks were well received by the community. In the future we hope to work with the esperantist community again and with the people from the Tolima Department and the Honda town. For us it is very important to let us know in the most remote villages of the country and with this project we did it in Honda.

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 attendees were very interested in our talks and we are created a good relationship with the them and the organizers of the event.

What did not work so well?

There was no chance to do photo-upload workshop because there were no computers available.

What would you do differently next time?

We got many good photos of the event and the town, but the photos could have been better if we had a better photographic equipment

Remaining funds

The funds remaining from this grant in the amount of 43,000 COP were deducted from another grant payment for Grants:Project/Rapid/Wikimedistas de Colombia/Wikivacaciones 2017.

Do you have any remaining grant funds?

The remaining money is 43 000 COP. We are running our annual contest Wikivacaciones 2017. For us is very expensive to return funds, so we hope we could use the remaining funds to cover part of this contest grant, if you approve that, of course.
