Problems

How can we engage people in the communities?

We built a crowd-sourcing system for the local sharing of social resources to encourage citizens to engage in community

 

Process

  1. Understanding current states

    • Current policies for single households in South Korea

    • Trend research for young single households

  2. Mining opportunities

    • Defined potential policy domains for young single households in Daejeon, Korea

    • Conducted stakeholders interviews and user studies (Lifestyle mapping workshop)

  3. In-depth User Study

    • Conducted an user participatory probe study using Instagram STORY function

    • Collect 1,500 dietary logs

    • Qualitative coding analysis

    • We identified 10 motivational factors for the mutual help service

  4. Developing a service concept

    • Mutual help matching service (App) for dietary life of young single households

Throughout the user survey,

We found that users were willing to share their social resources but they had no way to know if their neighbors wanted the resources.

Also, they wanted to customize the resources and negotiate with neighbors within the system.

 

5. Defining User Sequence

 

6. Service / UI Design

 

7. Developing a prototype

We developed a prototype and are planning to conduct a user study with it.

Poom means ‘in Someone's arms’ in Korean.

Brief System UI

8. Evaluation (in 2023)

In 2023, we are going to conduct a quantitative/qualitative evaluation with designers and citizens to validate the efficacy of the system.
