CHALLENGES
The major challenge is irregular engagement by members on the page. In addition, we are yet to reach our target number of memberships on the page (300 members).
MITIGATION
To address the challenge of irregular engagement, we continued sharing educational resourcesand opportunities, stories and interactive games to engage the EWEI Online members. We shared useful security and safety tips, alongside funding opportunities. We also sharedvideos to promote interactivity among members. To address the challenge of irregular membership, we inform participants by sharing the link to the page during EWEI events and encourage women and girls we interact with to become members.
NEXT STEPS
Moving forward, we will continue to implement the cross-posting methods. That is, we will regularly post information regarding EWEI Online on all EWEI's social media platforms encouraging ladies to join the page, engage in polls, post riddles, share videos, fun facts and ask questions to promote interactivity.
We will also organise Facebook live chats and events to discuss with members on trending issues that affect every day social and professional life, and also, get their opinions on issuesthey will want to engage with on the platform.
