3 prototype ideas - SM

1: "Your Story"
Documenting young peoples stories and lives.
A campaign to have young people share their experiences and views,
things they are thankful for, things they are proud of etc.
There are many negative stereotypes associated with young people, let them show others what they really are like.
Could be compiled to a yearly publication: An anthropological document showing the feeling and life and people of a current point in time.
Allows people to feel like they are being listened to, documents a time in their lives, shows them people that experience the same things, helps them feel grounded.


2: Hauora
Starting with interventions that question others and ask them to complete tasks. Tasks would revolve around aspects of Hauora (Physical, Spiritual, Family, Mental), e.g. take a walk, spend time with a friend.
There could be a hashtag for participants to share their experiences on, a page or account that shares weekly challenges, have participants share challenges for others to complete.
Working to make users more aware of balancing aspects of their wellbeing to challenging them to start discussions around wellbeing.
Challenging them to take control of their life, encouraging mindfulness.
If challenges were set by peers it would feel less being told what to do by "an older person who thinks they know best"

3: App / Platform 
An app that helps bring together people to share their interests and solve problems,
inspired by "Fiverr" https://www.fiverr.com and Fixperts http://fixperts.org
Could be location based,
Users could post something they need help with and others users could accept the challenge.
"a market of knowledge"
Helping remind users of the things they are capable of
remind users of their strengths and give them value
helping to affirm their identities,
connecting people so they can find like minded people,
helping them feel less alone
