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?

In our last report we notices about the importance of the sitebanner. We experimente then the lack of a banner for reach people. This time we fixed this, and with almost a month before the event a Central Notice banner was show to everyone in Colombia. Thanks to this we get a lot of interest from media, we get interviewed for a radio program and from a newspaper de distribución masiva.

• What did not work so well?

We expected more attendees. At first we estimated 14-15 participants, our hopes get higher with the atention of the media, but finally we barelly reach our first estimations.

• What would you do differently next time?

We must get better in reaching people. Even with the interest of the media, we only reached our first estimation. What we can do? We are still exploring that.
