Topic Chosen #

Whilst Singapore is considered a developed nation, there are still many who are less fortunate than others. How can we embrace inclusively and integrate people who might otherwise be excluded or marginalized?

Why this topic #

Our group is very passionate about the idea of inclusion and the need to make the world a better place.

We believe that the segregation between the majority and the minority is due to the lack of interaction between those with different backgrounds and this creates misunderstanding and discord among them.

To alleviate this issue, our group has decided to come up with our app idea JioU, where everyone can participate in events to help others. Groups of individuals will be grouped into teams containing people from various walks to life to participate in the event.

Description #

JioU is a simple, yet powerful, way to connect with others. Everyone can participate in events to help others. Groups of individuals will be grouped into teams containing people from various walks to life.

Through participating in the events, participants will get to know each other better. Even if the differences between the individuals are not immediately resolved, they will get to know one another better.

  1. Learn more about different cultures
