There are four campaigns running
in different locations with the identified three sponsors namely Department of
Export Agriculture (DOEA), Rangiri Radio and Janathakshan. Each campaign runs
on a separate Frontlinesms instance. All technology stewards were trained for technologies used in campaign at the Wayamba University of Sri Lanka.
DOEA North campaign started on 08 April 2014. There were around 20 farmers registered in the system in same day. The Frontlinesms instance is installed on a laptop computer at DOEA sub office situated in Govijana Sewa Center in Melsiripura. Mr. Chandana is the tech-steward operates there and Mrs. Gunasekara assisting him for official works. Both were trained as Technology Stewards in Wayamba University of Sri Lanka. This campaign main target audience is Ginger, Pepper and Cinnamon farmers.

Kurunegala. Mr. Mahendra and Mr. Upul serve as the tech stewards there. This

Great work Chandana and Nuwan. We need to ensure that the tech stewards remain actively involved in promoting the campaigns and providing us with data exports and updates.
ReplyDeleteYes Gordon, Many of the Tech's are active. Some one needs little push to run the campaign. I'm Little worried about only the Batticaloa's Tech (because up to 02nd July no any backup data. )
