S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
issues as as so um it's growing
0:04
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
i know from from our previous uh discussions but
0:08
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
i hope you see this as a great opportunity um as
0:12
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
well and and the way i discuss it with them is as we have discussed it
0:17
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
as you know this is truly success
0:21
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
concern.
0:22
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
And it's another way of us taking a more holistic view
0:27
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
of understanding student success and providing
0:31
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
the support that's needed to ensure that all students have an opportunity
0:35
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
to succeed when they're at the university level.
0:38
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
You know,
0:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Dr.
0:40
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Mugabe and I discussed that,
0:42
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
and as we have discussed,
0:44
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
you know, most governments
0:46
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
really look at food insecurity at,
0:50
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
you know,
0:50
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
the primary and secondary level.
0:53
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
And even once you get to the high school,
0:56
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
it's not seen as...
0:59
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
critical and definitely at the university level so this
1:03
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
is an opportunity for us to really be able to do that so
1:08
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
the other reason also getting with the school uh that's in
1:12
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
the collaborative in east africa um is to be able to work with
1:16
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
them with their irv as well in case you know there's an
1:21
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
aspect of of that so um that's
1:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
pretty much
1:25
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
summary of the meeting from yesterday that
1:30
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
I wanted to make sure we had an opportunity to discuss and to hear
1:36
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
your thoughts as well and then kind
1:40
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
of fill you in on next steps.
1:43
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
But let me stop here first.
1:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
1:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
First of all,
1:50
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I'm going to thank you so much.
1:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Like we deeply so much appreciate like what are you doing?
1:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Yeah,
1:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
making sure that our project and all
2:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
our work that we're doing in universities put to a next level because.
2:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I've been reading around about factors that affect
2:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
student success while at universities.
2:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And it's quite a broad thing.
2:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But then you like being able to also put
2:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
student food security in the scope.
2:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It is really something that we really so much appreciate.
2:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah i thank you for that and um we've been doing quite
2:32
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
uh some of uh been doing some been busy yeah
2:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
lately and uh yeah and joel i think has
2:40
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
prepared something for us a simple presentation yeah
2:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
oh great yeah and uh yeah he'll take us through what we've been doing
2:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
on our side and then also i'll also i'll
2:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
also get to take you through what
2:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
some of the things that i also managed to develop
2:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
while in this period,
3:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know,
3:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
me and Joel,
3:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we off -campus,
3:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah, we finished our studies,
3:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
but we still go back and try
3:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to study about the situation about food,
3:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
what are the gaps that are there in
3:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
terms of the food environment.
3:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So,
3:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah, we noticed a certain gap of which we came up with this good...
3:27
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
idea and we shall also be sharing it but um i'll
3:32
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
let joel take over and then take us a few of the things that he has for
3:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
us right now yeah great thank you um
3:41
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
i
3:47
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
don't know my my screen is fair is failing
3:51
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
to share here but uh i'll keep it simple
3:55
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
actually it was part of the things we had discussed in
3:59
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
the whatsapp group
4:01
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
Some of the brief overview that we had shared with you,
4:04
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
Dr. And,
4:05
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
yeah,
4:07
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
from how we grew.
4:09
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
Last time when we talked,
4:10
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
we were around 800 students.
4:12
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
But then we came back when it's 2
4:17
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
,500.
4:18
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
And at least we have grown our network,
4:22
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
making collaborations with students' associations
4:27
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
in four different campuses currently.
4:31
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
as the universities were shared in a group.
4:33
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
And on that,
4:36
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
we also had a pilot study of the
4:40
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
campus nutrition seminars.
4:41
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
This was initiated because students,
4:45
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
they have the basic meals to start the semester.
4:50
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
They have the little money,
4:52
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
they start with the semester.
4:53
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
But then the problem they have,
4:55
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
usually for those that have,
4:58
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
is that
5:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We get to only buy one type of food,
5:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that would be men's flour or rice.
5:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So a student gets to finish an entire semester surviving
5:09
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
on one type of meal.
5:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We piloted
5:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that with an agro
5:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
nutritionist partner that is called Body and Soil.
5:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It's a new organization here.
5:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And we had it successfully.
5:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We started at Chambogoy University with 25 student leaders.
5:40
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We wanted to learn more from the student leaders.
5:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
What kind of meals do most of the students
5:48
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
have?
5:48
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
What do they see about nutrition at campus?
5:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Because at least for them,
5:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they can represent a big number of students.
5:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And it was successful.
5:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And it was successful.
6:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So we are continuing.
6:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Now we want to read out the national case in that model
6:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
because we proved that it works.
6:09
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And in that nutrition seminar,
6:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we,
6:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah,
6:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
excuse me.
6:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So in that nutrition seminar,
6:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we got what we wanted to test and now we want to extend out.
6:24
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It was a proof of concept and we saw that it works.
6:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Now we are looking on ways on how to maybe amplify more
6:31
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
on that.
6:31
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And our first initiative following the seminar was to get
6:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the freshmen during their orientation week,
6:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
give to them a traditional advice because
6:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the freshmen,
6:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
these are students that are in a transitional stage.
6:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They are coming from high school where their meals are already prepared.
6:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They are already shared.
6:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I mean,
6:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they are already prepared and,
6:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, planned for.
6:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They are coming from like a golden
7:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
platter, you know,
7:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
like.
7:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So everything is planned.
7:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But then when they come to campus...
7:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Some of them don't know how to cook.
7:10
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They don't know how to prepare their meals,
7:13
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
how to plan for them.
7:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So it's through these nutrition education seminars that
7:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we are fighting food insecurity by first of all
7:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
instilling in the students the coping mechanisms on
7:27
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
how to survive off campus.
7:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Also,
7:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we are also given some financial management skills.
7:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
For instance,
7:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there is a platform that we are developing
7:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It's a meal preparation
7:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
website or application.
7:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And Victor will talk more about that.
7:48
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And these are part of some few initiatives
7:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that we are coming up with so that we can get to solve this problem.
7:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And then we go
8:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to the research as we had earlier on discussed.
8:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
but that is still at our post but we are also glad
8:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
from hearing after hearing from you uh with the good news and
8:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
uh yeah so we have reached there basically but
8:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
our biggest achievement so far has been the nutrition education session
8:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
seminar but then also the orientation but still
8:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we still have this problem like
8:29
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we reached out to the dean of students last monday
8:32
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
at Chambogo University.
8:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But as we still have this problem that the
8:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
administration still resents us,
8:41
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know?
8:41
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Because when we reached out with our proposal to the dean of students,
8:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
because it handles the student welfare,
8:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
as much as the university appreciated our
8:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
first musician campaign
8:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that we had,
8:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they appreciated it and it was published.
8:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Even the department
9:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that we partnered with,
9:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the nutrition department.
9:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We are very okay with it.
9:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But when we went high up the offices,
9:09
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the dean of students,
9:10
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there was some
9:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
resentment for us to access the
9:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
orientation,
9:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
not to have access to the students in orientation.
9:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We need to pay up to 2 million Ugandan shillings.
9:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yes for us to do our own service yeah but as
9:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
students yeah so yeah those are the kind
9:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
of the problems that you know i feel like maybe that education
9:42
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
education collaborative could actually amplify us or
9:46
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
empower us to have the connections from up in the universities
9:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
themselves because currently those are the kind of problems because for
9:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
us we feel like if students are succeeding and through
9:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
this
10:00
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
problem is addressed well we feel like even the university is
10:04
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
winning and when we reach out to the university and then they give
10:08
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
to us these roadblocks yeah yeah
10:13
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
it really breaks the soul and uh you know the efforts or the motivation but
10:18
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
you're not losing soul at least now you are trying to work it from the other route
10:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
like
10:23
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
If they are not giving us the main platform for the entire university,
10:27
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
at least now we can go reach out to individual
10:31
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
departments with different deans in different departments.
10:35
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
And at least for them,
10:37
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
they can give us access in the departmental orientations to those
10:41
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
that can allow.
10:42
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
At least now that is our approach in
10:46
S… Speaker 4 (New Recording 59)
regards to the education around nutrition.
11:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah um yeah just
11:10
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to go back a bit to the nutrition seminar yeah
11:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
um it was a success yeah
11:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
how much it was it was a proof of concept
11:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But just to go take you through a little bit of details of
11:27
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
what it was about.
11:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We were trying to teach
11:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
students skills,
11:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
food security skills,
11:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I would call them.
11:37
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And then how could they prepare meals,
11:40
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
nutritious meals at a budget.
11:42
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And we also trying to bridge
11:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
a gap.
11:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
about the foods that are being served in schools.
11:53
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
For example,
11:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Joel has said that students,
11:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
in their high school stage,
12:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
everything is planned for them.
12:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Breakfast, the lunch,
12:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the supper,
12:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
everything is planned.
12:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But when you look at what has been planned for them,
12:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you won't miss out posho and beans.
12:10
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And in most of the schools,
12:13
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that is the case.
12:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And yeah,
12:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
so their meals were mostly monotonous.
12:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And there was a gap.
12:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And thank God that we happened to partner with Body
12:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and Soil that is reconnecting communities
12:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to their local foods.
12:31
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
For example,
12:32
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
for us, we have here like different,
12:35
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
a number of cultures around here.
12:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And when I talk about cultures,
12:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that means that...
12:41
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
There is different preferences of foods.
12:44
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
So yeah,
12:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we have a rich diversity of foods here and in our
12:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
efforts to end campus hunger,
12:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we want also reconnect students to their local
12:58
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
foods because those are the foods that they relate to.
13:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Poshu and beans,
13:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
when you go back in the time,
13:09
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
it was a food that was introduced during the colonial age.
13:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So we want to end that through
13:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
these nutrition seminars as well.
13:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And yeah,
13:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that's one thing I thought of it would be important to mention about.
13:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Just to talk about the application that I
13:37
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
was developing recently.
13:39
S… Speaker 5 (New Recording 59)
Now,
13:40
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
still,
13:41
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
when you look at the gap in
13:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the transition of students from high school life to campus
13:50
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
life, students are coming from a background
13:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
where meals are being prepped for them,
13:58
S… Speaker 5 (New Recording 59)
you know.
14:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
meals are being prepared to them by the
14:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
school cooks.
14:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They find everything ready.
14:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But here,
14:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
when you join campus,
14:09
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
for example, even us,
14:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we never knew where to find foods.
14:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
You enter campus,
14:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you don't know where you're going to get your lunch from,
14:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
your breakfast from.
14:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So we realized that a lot of mistakes are done by
14:24
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
freshmen students.
14:29
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
So,
14:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there came an idea of meal
14:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
plans.
14:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I'm pretty sure
14:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you're quite familiar with what meal plans are.
14:41
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
So,
14:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the idea of meal plans is we studied
14:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the different kinds of students that are a campus.
14:50
S… Speaker 3 (New Recording 59)
For example,
14:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there are those...
14:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
who are at campus for a weekly basis,
14:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that those who do evening classes,
14:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that those who do weekend classes.
15:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
There are different kinds of students.
15:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
There are those with special needs as well.
15:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And we figured that
15:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
if we come up with an application where the
15:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
students could have meal plans,
15:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and this would help them because what
15:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we are doing, we are collaborating with local restaurants.
15:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
We are going around different restaurants and then...
15:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
determine what kinds of foods are they offering what kinds of what
15:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
are the prices they are set so we bridge the gap
15:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
between students and then where they could get foods because
15:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
those who are able to get to subscribe to
15:42
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
those meal plans yeah and maybe i'm
15:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
gonna take you through this application briefly
15:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and you see how it
15:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It works in just a second here.
16:00
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Are
16:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you guys able to see my windows?
16:21
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Yes.
16:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Okay.
16:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Okay.
16:24
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So the application is
16:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
called Lunch Link.
16:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So this is like an
16:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
account, an online account that offers students prepaid meals.
16:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So the students get to subscribe at the start of the semester.
16:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And then they go to their preferred restaurants
16:48
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and then claim the meals on whichever
16:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
subscription that they've subscribed to.
16:58
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
So I
17:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
talked about different students
17:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
at campus.
17:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And these are the kind of
17:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
meal plans, the basic meal plans that we thought of.
17:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that students might get to subscribe to.
17:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They are traditional,
17:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they are unlimited,
17:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they are fixed meal plans.
17:25
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Again,
17:27
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
depending on what kind of students that you are,
17:29
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you would
17:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
always subscribe to this kind of meal plan.
17:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And quickly,
17:41
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I'm going to take you through the students' login panel.
17:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and then uh you see
17:51
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
how it works here so yeah
17:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
um this is like a student's dashboard now
18:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah this is uh this is where like
18:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
a student will get to know how many meals they have um
18:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
how many meals they are remaining with uh i'm
18:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
having here lunch credits now uh
18:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
meal types are always standardized to a certain price
18:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
of a certain
18:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
amount of money whereby in case a student wants something
18:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
extra, in case they are to claim a meal at
18:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
their preferred restaurant,
18:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there is that extra amount of money that
18:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
is offered to them to purchase drinks,
18:48
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
you know,
18:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
water or anything.
18:50
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
So yeah,
18:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
those are like the lunch credits.
18:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So they get to use them to get extra extras
19:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to supplement the food.
19:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So briefly,
19:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
when the student goes to
19:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
their preferred restaurant,
19:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they would simply show in the QR code.
19:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And then of
19:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
course the restaurant would scan it and then they would be served.
19:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
As simple as that.
19:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And it's very secure,
19:28
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
yeah,
19:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
because the link always expires within five minutes,
19:31
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and you could always refresh to a
19:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
different, in case it expires,
19:37
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there's always a new link that is embedded.
19:40
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Yeah,
19:42
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and in case the QR code happens not to work,
19:46
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there is always a certain number that comes at every
19:50
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
end of the cycle.
19:52
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
They would always redeem their mail.
19:57
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
yeah so they could always
20:00
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
choose their preferred restaurants um around
20:04
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
their near their location and i believe this is something very
20:09
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
good for students with special needs for example
20:13
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
you wouldn't want um a student who
20:18
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
um um a
20:24
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
student with a different kind of special need for example if they are not
20:29
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
if moving from one location to another is something would
20:33
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
be difficult to them they would come here and see what
20:38
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
restaurant is really close to them and then they would check
20:42
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
it out and then yeah they would go there and here they
20:46
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
would always browse around although i haven't put the photos in there but
20:51
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
they would always browse around the different kinds of meals that are offered
20:55
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
in those yeah restaurants and
21:00
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
the different kinds of meal plans that are offered.
21:03
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
So it is still in development.
21:06
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
21:08
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
But it's something that I believe it's going to be a
21:12
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
plus on our efforts to end campus
21:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
hunger.
21:16
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
21:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
21:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
21:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Yeah.
21:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Now,
21:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
this is all great.
21:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And so,
21:24
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Victor,
21:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you're building this out yourself,
21:27
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
this whole life form.
21:29
S… Speaker 2 (New Recording 59)
yes i am building it by myself great
21:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
great no this this this is great um
21:37
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So, as I said,
21:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, as we started,
21:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you all have been doing some great work to continue this.
21:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And so knowing all of this will help me when it's time to
21:47
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
put together the grant proposal,
21:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
what to put into it,
21:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
because part of it could be,
21:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know,
21:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
as much as we're collecting data,
21:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
it could be an opportunity to pilot certain things,
22:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
like, for example,
22:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the platform that you're...
22:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
building out if there's an opportunity to do something like that or
22:07
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and or continue with the nutritional uh seminar
22:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that that you've already started or to expand on those
22:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
um as well and so that's something we can definitely uh
22:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
look at when we get to that point dr uh mugabe
22:25
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
said i think we're going to try to reconnect by thursday
22:29
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to let you know about which
22:31
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
school in Uganda,
22:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
which faculty member I can connect with
22:37
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there for us to look at the work and to do
22:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
things as it needs to be.
22:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
If we don't connect with a particular person
22:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
he has in mind,
22:50
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we have a plan B to be able to move this forward as well
22:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
because ultimately
22:56
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
uh the two hubs have really agreed that this is important for
23:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
us to to support this work and to um
23:04
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
bring it into the education collaborative and as you said it's
23:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
an opportunity for us to have a voice um
23:13
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
a global continental voice coming from the education collaborative
23:17
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
which people
23:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
so as you said it was difficult for you to uh speak
23:23
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
with the dean of students because you shouldn't have to pay that kind of money to
23:28
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
speak to other students where as you said it's
23:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
pro bono work you know that
23:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
we you know figure out
23:40
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
on as well i i really like also uh victor
23:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
what you're you're pulling out because it's beginning to look at like what
23:49
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you see globally at universities where uh
23:53
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
students do purchase meal plans and but what's
23:58
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
different
23:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
From what you might see on the continent most of the time in other places,
24:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
they have the options like you are showing.
24:05
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Some of them use like gold,
24:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
silver, platinum level,
24:10
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know,
24:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
types.
24:11
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And each one,
24:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you're paying a little more money as you're saying,
24:15
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, more options,
24:16
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, as well.
24:18
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
I think one thing that might be great to consider in this
24:22
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
and what you see globally in these types of plans is when
24:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
students don't use,
24:29
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
all of what they,
24:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
all of the funds that they've put into the plan,
24:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
right?
24:33
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Most of the times,
24:36
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
universities don't have where you can,
24:39
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
so the semester ends and the
24:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
spring semester ends.
24:45
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
It doesn't allow you to take that money into the following semester,
24:50
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
say for the fall.
24:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Some school where I've done,
24:54
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
set it up where
24:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Students may be able to use that money to do what
25:00
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
called bulk ordering.
25:01
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So let's say,
25:02
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
for example,
25:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
there's a store on campus where you can,
25:06
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, go and buy provisions.
25:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Students can use those funds to
25:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
buy a bulk of provisions.
25:14
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Of course,
25:17
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know, non -perishable ones.
25:19
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
So for example,
25:20
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
if they're selling,
25:21
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
you know,
25:26
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
Then we can buy those in bulk and have them ready for when they
25:30
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
come back in the fall because there's no exploration on those.
25:34
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
But they can only use up to a
25:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
certain amount.
25:38
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
And then if they still have funds left
25:43
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
on their account,
25:44
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
the university has a system in place
25:48
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
that it takes that money.
25:51
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
what could be used and they put
25:55
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
it into an account where then students who
25:59
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
are being challenged with food insecurity and unable
26:03
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
to say put more money on their plan the university can
26:08
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
then take money from that account to help those students so
26:12
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
it's another way where students are helping each other without really
26:17
S… Speaker 1 (New Recording 59)
knowing, but the monies are not going to waste.
