- What worked well?
- The event was engaging as participants worked in groupwise
- Volunteers were so cooperative in all activities during the event
- Despite the heavy rainfall, we were lucky that there were no power cut issues.
- What did not work so well?
- Participants came a little late (a range of about 30 mins to 1:30 hrs) after the planned starting time.
- Some registered participants didn’t show up
- Few number of Women showed up
- What would you do differently next time?
- Encourage more women to attend Wiki events
