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?
We are happy that all the target goals were met successfully
  • What did not work so well?
Having a big number of participants during the in-person events was a bit challenging
  • What would you do differently next time?
Enhancing strict rules on the attendants (Only with the event tickets will be allowed to access the venue) but also encouraging other members to participate online (in hybrid events) would resolve this issue.
