Inspiration
We started off with an idea is to help women to rejoin the workforce and keep connected to society by creating education websites for upwork, as many lose the ability to work as they are disconnected from society for years due to family reasons or child care. Later, we noticed the power of community and we would like to establish an online supportive community for women to learn from and help each other.
We created a web forum with gamification components and education resources. To elaborate, users can write a post offering help/ advice to new mothers for example, and they will be awarded points, which can be used for unlocking online vocational courses.
As not everyone has access to the internet or smart devices, we would also like to tackle the digital divide and inequality in the chance of receiving education by setting up a scheme to collect old or unwanted phones/ laptops and redistribute them to women who need them.
