DOPE Project Brief

We are working on a project to help young adults’ mental health in this world of overstimulation and increased isolation. We have gathered & analysed data from volunteers as we aim to make our approach as relatable as possible. We have derived some solution and built an app interface around these. However, we could use more input and review of our solutions from a select group of people like yourself.

Background

Here, we present some of the data we collected and analysed. Based on this data, we have derived some approaches which will be presented at the brainstorming session. Your role as a participant would be to present further ideas on how we can approach the below problems. You are also welcome to give your opinion on the approaches we have derived. Again, the purpose of this is to make the solutions affordable, and as relatable as possible; not fictional solutions that do not really help anyone.

Please go through the below to get an idea of the data we collected, the kind of problems highlighted and note your ideas on how we can address the issues. More information on the project and processed data will be provided at the brainstorming session.
