There is information regarding SEF that is not shown well enough to the general public via our platforms.

**\> "General public not getting an overall idea about SEF"**

when they visit our website is the issue we are trying to solve in this thread.  
Information such as,

1. Goals and motive of SEF
2. In-depth information regarding projects
3. The origin and expansion

and more can be added to the sites in order to further enhance the productivity of showing information via our platforms .

From the information, I have gathered the main detail which is included in this document and not in the website is ,

> **What is SEF?**
> 
> The Sustainable Education Foundation (SEF) is a volunteer-driven not for profit organization  
> SEF was founded with the short-term goal of making the Sri Lankan education system the most effective and most dynamic education system in the world with the help of a specialist global network of local and ex-pat Sri Lakans.

> **We can edit and add this part as the motive**  
> SEF’s long-term goal is to disrupt and democratize the global education system where it is available for everyone, in doing so, the foundation contributes to the United Nations’ sustainable development goal of “Quality Education”.

> **The history and how it was found by whom etc**  
> founded by:-  
> former Google Student Ambassador and alumnus of the University of Moratuwa, Akshika Wijesundara.

**The most important piece of information I found was this picture given below**

 ![Capture](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/sef/original/1X/aa6b2c46717a5a6fafa200b5977420005c26cdf6.jpeg)

Basically, it summarizes the overall goals, motive idea and gives a clear picture to the general public  
So my suggestion is to filter out the vital details here, and add or subtract info (since this document is a bit outdated), and give quality output in a creative manner to the website and make it publicly visible.

</div>

Also, the part of the future plans is missing, in the document, it gives an idea (not exact since it is unpredictable), but at least a rough estimation about the overall goals can be displayed on the website, so the people who want to join SEF, **WIll know how and what they can contribute to the SEF.**

 ![Capture2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/sef/original/1X/649ce7bb11b5814079d87dbf3dc6b0a7286191f2.jpeg)

this SS from the documents gives a rough idea, but we can rather think of a creative way to bring it up (maybe a calendar, a road map) to depict the path we would follow. since the plain text will make people hesitant to read it.

</div>

another direct question that is answered in the document is,

**Why you should Join SEF?**

 ![Capture3](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/sef/original/1X/d4291d8c40e6820efa2fbe4026c0e27cb9fa76f8.jpeg)

Although the join us request is given, the exact outcome of what the volunteers would gain in the process is not shown. We can include these details and more to gain attraction.

**For the beyond 2021** question, the decision was to update the already existing **Our journey so far** image from the google slide for **New hire induction**.

@Madhawa is already assigned with this task to update the google slide.

</div>

On the google slide, all the content starting from section 2019 needs to be updated before publishing on the website.

@akshika47, could you give me the information/ content which should be included for those sections? (sections 2019, 2020, and 2021+)

As the above image shows, so far I’ve just added the 2021+ section with the information given on the google doc, which @Akeel_malik shared.
