#SIGHT #humanitarian #IEEE #uchile #StudentBranch

A meeting was held where new members and volunteers were welcomed. The current projects being developed were presented, and they were asked about their areas of interest to integrate them into the work teams. Progress of the “Párvulos Project” was reviewed, where three stands will be prepared: two on renewable energies (solar energy and wind energy) and another focused on robotics through the creation of “robot turtles.” The date of this activity is set for November 20th; the date of the course that will be provided by the school is still pending, as well as finding funding for the materials for the activity.

The “PCs Project” was also discussed, which aims to hold workshops on assembling, disassembling, and reusing computers. It is currently in the technical recruitment stage, and an internal training workshop will be held at the university. Work groups were organized according to preferences, and it was proposed to create a WhatsApp community to coordinate subcommittees. It was agreed to inform the members who could not attend about the status of the projects. In addition, a meeting was scheduled with a university professor to ask for the possibilities of obtaining materials and technical guidance. It was also agreed to create a Linktree for communication purposes and to establish weekly task reports.
