Day 2
- The team discussed main challenges from day 1:
- Sukums suggestion: scalability and sustainability in the future in terms of network/internet connectivity but also on the digitization of the contents (content management platform and skills locally). Levels of support to do troubleshooting e.g. at the community level, district level. We can also use a community of networks who has technicians to exchange ideas. Co-creation of contextualized contents, find a platform for content management which will be friendly to lower level of communities. Use of volunteers who can get non-financial and financial incentives.
- Maurice comment: There can be a challenge with lack of competence, but the willingness to provide support services of any kind should be incentivized. We've faced the same challenges in universities, which have full-time paid IT professionals with such a mindset that anything to do with project work should bring extra income. They willingly avoid helping for free.
- Regarding content and platform development, we are working on the specifications: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Xcbx2iHGaleRRjQ-Y6nDu3Dr254gQtZNS507Qh1kH2A/edit?usp=sharing
- Ownership and community involvement in the villages. Different approach. In the first villages we, the DigI-project, initiated the hotspots with free access to information. In the later villages (connectivity provided by African Child and BOACSE) ownership is stronger, as it is self initiated.
- The platform and the lack of scalability
- Initial rollout: the same content
- Next step: Open source platform
- Local technical support - how do we get the competencies up? Today problems are solved depending on the level of expertise in the villages. Can we organize a training workshop for the ICT teachers/focal persons in each site so that they can we oriented on troubleshooting skills?
- Idodi and Kimande is on the list of next villages to be connected. Bernard suggested that these would appear on the list of UCSAF to be connected as part of the 10 schools.
- Christine write to Catherine to ask if the list can be revised to include Idodi and Kimande secondary schools
- Bernard contact headmasters of the schools
- Ideally create more youth-friendly material, as content on sexual and reproductive health, mental health, stress relieve etc.
- The budget discussion postponed to June 2nd at 13.00, Oslo time.
- Most important to support phd-students, Flora and Christine, to collect data in Iringa in June, and to establish a sustainable model
- After budget meeting, we will decide the possibilities of an extension and a physical meeting.
- Approval discussion on the anthrax animation. Christine, Elibariki, Bernard and Andrea meet offline.
