networking is BIG
collaboration comes within the networking .
yes its hard to put ur finger on and spot it and it continues or even starts after the time frame of the project .
some other examples @simam is doing her workshop for kids in @labanita 's Rasheed 22 coworking space .
@Dina visited @Abdo 's workshop and possibly some collaboration will happen in the near future .
for me I am waiting to come back to cairo to meet and possibly collaborate with @asmaa_kamel or @labanita in the educational field or with @amiridina and @monarizk in the participatory planning or the NGOs CBOs thing and link some networks who r not on the platform .
this approach this much different than the one challenge to solve or a prize or something , and not all changemakers who r also not mapped with the UNDP or other institutes didn’t join because of different reasons ( being busy with their own challenges , didn’t see this initiative going anywhere , don’t trust the big institutions or even don’t think about themselves as "changemakers " or underestimate their work , or for the language barrier which is still an issue ) BUT actually reaching some and networking will create a mass that attracts others and it is working as we can all see . but as mentioned its hard to spot and hard to evaluate as it is a naturally grown thing not a prize to win or a proposal to deliver.
