Counter Health Misinformation

An educational board game that explains public health

The idea is to create an affordable game for teenagers and young adults in underserved communities that might not have a robust science education system.Let's channel the love of gaming into self-education on public health measures by turning this information into functions of cards that help them win against their friends.

An incubator for entrepreneurial people with disabilities that creates agents of change
Remedy The Digital Divide

An incubator for entrepreneurial people with disabilities that creates agents of change

Based on the premise of "nothing for us, without us," the idea seeks to ensure that people with disabilities have other people with disabilities as references, who accompany them from the beginning of the process of training, creation, and monitoring of their enterprises until these are self-sustaining. In turn, they will become reference agents of change for other people with and without disabilities to break the inequality gaps in the region.

A platform that empowers people to help each other with climate action goals
Combat Climate Change

A platform that empowers people to help each other with climate action goals

The platform would connect people who are well informed on climate change but excluded (by location, disability, finances, or other factors) from participating in all the individual climate action they'd like to undertake to people who have resources but aren't sure where to direct them. As a starting point, this would involve getting in touch with climate activists already operating in those communities and starting with questions like "Do you even want this?" and "How could we make this more useful to you?”

Rethink Our Democracy

A system that makes civic engagement and social justice available via cellphones

AwaCountry as an organization believes unity can be accelerated through the use of civic engagement and getting citizens to speak out when their rights are trampled upon. The idea focuses on the 49% of communities in Nigeria who don’t have access to the Internet. The domain name AwaCountry.org has been bought and registered—now, the next step is to create an official website and USSD code.
