Learning edit

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?

Almost all of our planning went well. Our New Users have successfully opened the Account easily no problem. We have also worked with Facilitators to support New Users in editing. Then we managed to open WhatsApp Group which is currently asking us questions and we are giving them answers.

  • What did not work so well?

The main thing that went wrong was the Projector, we got a problem with it because the Projector didn't work instead we used Plasma. As a result of heavy rain in August in Northern Nigeria, some Participants were not able to come early due to heavy rains.

  • What would you do differently next time?

Since our biggest problem is a projector, next time we will surely tested it before the event. And if we found that it will not work well, we will provide a Plasma.
