Kaampe Website

Project Description:

The Interdisciplinary Studies in Human-Centred Design and the Digital Health programs at Algonquin College collaborated in research to scientifically identify by means of data why women were ‘needlessly’ dying during pregnancy. After many months of research, they came up with some main contributing factors: timeliness of care, availability / visibility of medical care and lack of financial assistance.
In short, every woman should have access to pregnancy-related health care information, and they should be able to easily find a healthcare professional near them. Thanks to technology, there are feasible solutions. An online information portal platform can be created to provide pregnant women in Africa with the resources needed for safe pregnancy and childbirth.
Our challenge was to create a mobile first, accessible, multilingual platform for our client that provided the functionality to search for local healthcare professionals, access tailored information and learn more about the Kaampe Project while taking into consideration accessibility and cultural/religious sensitivities. We learned much regarding how to collaborate as a remote team and simultaneously develop a WordPress site.
