UniDay

Inspiration

Our inspiration was to make life easier for students, and show them that there are solutions to some of their main problems.

Many students have depression, anxiety, and attempt suicide, avoiding this and decreasing their pain is our biggest inspiration. Since there are close people who go through these pains.

What it does

Our website shows simple solutions, but that the student often forgets about these, making simple and cheap indications to make your life more pleasant and even improve your productivity in studies.

How we build

We did the project in Figma. And we researched more about this reality, and we observed that it was something of extreme importance and urgent, even more being a topic so close to us, unfortunately.

Challenges we encountered

I think the biggest challenge was having people on the team from other countries, the time zone and language, mainly.

Achievements we are proud of

The person who presented it is starting an English course, and learning about design and development, so presenting and delivering this project is already a source of great pride.

What we learned

We learned that suicide, anxiety and depression is a reality that is very close to all of us, and avoiding talking about these, or the problems that can cause them, only prevents people from seeking help. And to show that despite the difficulties life has its solutions, it can help these people a lot.

What's next for UniDay

An app, where we want to integrate a support network, volunteers or organizations that work with suicide prevention.

Subtitles, in case you don't understand what was said in the video

Hello, my name is Beatriz and now I'm going to introduce you to Uni Day

It is a very simple project, but it was made to fight something of great importance and priority, suicide.

Many people think that this is a topic that should not be commented or discussed, but in fact it is a matter of great relevance, and not talking about it only makes them suffer not to seek help.

A student, regardless of whether he is a university student or not, suffers from different types of pressure, whether social, family, and this affects a lot, for example...

Its focus, and focus, is paramount for the student, and some basic things can help this, such as the use of music, in addition to maintaining their well-being.

Transport or locomotion is usually something that weighs heavily on student finances, but many are unaware that many countries or cities offer discounts on student transport.

For example, I use in Brazil, the so-called student VEM, which makes me pay intercity tickets for half the price.

Another thing is the student's food, he usually looks for the cheapest and fastest, but not having adequate nutrition impacts his current life and in the future. To have the synapses occurring in perfect condition, the student needs to be well fed and nutritionally up to date.

This directly influences their mental health, and speaking of this, many students forget that leisure time is important, and focusing only on studies is usually much less productive than having habits of social life, leisure and the like.

This is why the importance of UniDay
