We chose to focus on this challenge as a team because it is a world wide problem and it affects many more people than you would think of. We researched statistics and we found out that 46% of people feels left out due to them being ‘different’.
I found out a lot more statistics and information about diversity and inclusion while working in this project that i knew beforehand. i found out that older generations may feel left out more due to not being physically able to perform certain activities that others can. Also that diversity fosters more creativity and innovation in the workplace.
Our hero is Lena she is a muslim women and she is constantly being discriminated against due to her being muslim. There are many stereotypes against muslim people such as that they are terrorists for example. She fights these stereotypes everyday.
i would like to improve the way other people think of her and others like here and of her religion.
we are considering designing a platform or website that helps connect many people together through certain interests and helps people connect.
Would you say you are part of a diverse group in anyway?
