Team 19 – Storybooks

Sustainability Storybooks for Young Children

 

Problem Definition

In order to contribute to the achievement of the 11th UN Goal (Sustainable cities and communities) it is imperative to address the issue of sustainability at a very early stage. By appealing and teaching kids between the age of 6 – 10 it would be possible to lay a solid foundation off which they could continue to build upon and contribute to a more sustainable planet. The main problem is the lack of awareness about the enviroment and the capability to sensitize children at a very young age.

User Persona

Brainstorming and Ideation

Based on our various brainstorming sessions, the persona above and by trusting the ideation process the following wireframe was developed.

The Solution

After various cycles of defining the problem as well as an intense ideation phase, the solution is to create illustrated and interactive storybooks and games which kids can engage with. The games and storybooks would be divided into various categories addressing different aspects of sustainabililty. By providing early education to the problems faced when dealing with sustainability, we create a society, by means of the education of children, that recognizes and accepts the impact it has on the environment.
