Each community of Practice has its Whatsapp group. Beyond this number, 280 people have registered via the website as subscribers to the newsletter Some of our organizational focal points had changed jobs and their contacts were no longer functional. Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs As the newsletters are sent directly by email and through the members' whatsapp group, the % of people who have opened the newsletter is difficult to calculate. But in the whatsapp group, the newsletter is usually viewed by all 68 participants The newsletters are sent by email and via the members' whatsapp group and the groups of the communities of practice. Therefore, the % of people who have opened the newsletter is difficult to evaluate. Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs As we still have difficulties to access and work on our website, this indicator could not be explored Our target was not achieved because the website was under maintenance (for redesign) for at least 4 months. Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs Besides Facebook and Twitter, Share-Net Burundi has registered on Instagram Number of knowledge products created by Communities of Practice We had to submit the report by the end of the year to meet the DL Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs Number and kind of knowledge that has been shared through SNI and the country hubs 18 comments have been monitored on different content published on social media during this year. However, this number does not include retweets; sharing of content on Facebook Number and kind of knowledge that has been translated into the appropriate formats During this year, a focus was placed on knowledge translation Some products were not available due to tight DLs. Number and kind of knowledge that has been translated into the appropriate formats Knowledge products from grants awarded to young researchers and youth-led organizations will be available by the end of the first quarter of 2022 Number and kind of knowledge that has been translated into the appropriate formats Of the 4 knowledge products planned, one could not be produced due to the unavailability of members of the community of practice. Number and kind of knowledge that has been promoted for use Of the 20 meetings planned, 3 could not be produced due to the unavailability of members of the community of practice. Number of CoPs that have been established and their respective topics In Burundi, all of the existing national communities of practice are active except for the infertility community of practice, where members are not active because there is little knowledge available and also less investment in this area. With WHO, we have discussed how to revitalize this community of practice but for now much of the effort is directed towards family planning and other issues of interest to the government. The reason the Diversity and Inclusion CoP fell asleep at its early stage is that the incident in Gitega that involved 24 people has caused more woes within the LGBTQI+ community in Burundi. Amongst the 24 imprisoned, 1 died in captivity, 4 have been sentenced a year and others have been liberated later January 2024. In 2024, we will continue exploring with UHAI and AidsFonds ways to digitally engage with members in Burundi and in the region through the regional community of practice to be set covering Burundi, Kenya and Uganda. Efforts SN has made to broaden its network By the end of 2020, after the membership re-engagement cycle, Share-Net Burundi had 35 active members. By the end of 2021, that number had almost doubled to 68 active members Our forecasts have not been met here, but it's also normal that Share-Net Burundi currently has the majority of stakeholders in the SRHR sector in Burundi. Efforts SN has made to broaden its network This is the most notable partnership , Share-Net Burundi has received funding from the Dutch Embassy in Burundi to coordinate a large sexual and reproductive health project (SRHR Solutions) involving several national and international organizations working in this field. The first cycle (two years out of four) of this project started on July 1, 2021 and will end on June 30, 2023. We were unable to organize all of this due to a lack of time and human resources available at the time. Efforts SN has made for matchmaking We had not established a baseline indicator To extent to which the financial execution is in line with financial planning We have shared costs in organizing activities globally with three institutions To extent to which the financial execution is in line with financial planning One of the three proposals submitted was successful, with EKN Embassy. The amount of the grant is 396 503 172 fbu (around 179 283 euros). The extent to which the governance of Share-Net is fit-for-purpose Coordinating all of the Embassy's partners involved in the SRHR Solutions program, Share-Net Burundi has participated on multiple occasions in meetings with the Embassy Team Cross-country learning Share-Net Burundi has participated in different trainings, namely trainings organized by SNI (SHIRIM, Proactive fundraising, etc...) and trainings organized within the hub (GTA) 5 SHIRIM sessions not originally planned The extent to which Share-Net members influenced programmes; policies and practices Not measured at baseline The extent to which Share-Net members influenced programmes; policies and practices Not measured at baseline The extent to which Share-Net members influenced programmes; policies and practices Not measured at baseline The extent to which CoPs are sustainable and empowered Not measured at baseline Uptake and use of outputs produced by Share-Net Not measured at baseline Functioning of CoPs Not measured at baseline The community of practice on diversity and inclusion, following developments in the situation regarding minority rights in Burundi, was unable to continue.
