AIDragon

Problem:

Did you know that there are more than 10 thousand young people with different abilities pursuing higher education in Ecuador? They often face a number of challenges within university campuses that can affect their academic performance, mental health and physical fitness (due to lack of adequate facilities). This also translates into subsequent difficulty in entering the labor market, further marginalizing this sector by not being able to access adequate living conditions for their well-being.

Idea:

AIDragon is an application that will help students with different abilities to be able to request academic and mobilization help within Universities, calling for empathy and socialization, we are willing to generate an inclusive and accessible community to guarantee that all people have equal opportunities in the educational field.

Main Beneficiaries:

The beneficiaries of AIDragon are private higher education students who have different abilities. As users, they will receive mobility, academic and social help to pursue their degree in such a way that they feel included and their university experience is the most profitable and pleasant. The estimated number of students to benefit from this project, given their condition, is 10,000 with a tendency to grow due to the democratization of higher education.
