Lessons Learned

Not everyone is ready to invest time, talent and treasure for the volunteer works in WePower initiatives without any arrangement for funding sources and incentives.

Challenges:

1. Negotiating with female School and college for STEM program 2. Arranging industrial tours—permission, transportation, other costs 3. Negotiating and Finalizing internship program A clear connectivity among strategic partner (IEEE BDS) and industrial partners in Bangladesh is needed that may help handling the above challenges better

Possible Solutions: Expectation from WePower:

Help finding funding Sources and volunteer Pool to implement the targets and make initiatives sustainable
