The problem Ardh Naari Shakti : A warm Hug solves

As we all know, the transgender community is one which is often not talked about; it is a very sensitive topic which everyone wants to avoid. Transgender individuals encounter societal hurdles, from discrimination to familial rejection, often leading to confusion upon realizing their true identity. This confusion affects their access to employment and housing, emphasizing the importance of supportive environments and understanding for their well-being. So, we decided to build software with these features:

  1. A female chat bot where if someone finds conditions that they are transgender and are confused, then that bot will help to clarify all doubts and console them.
  2. Job or work opportunities details for transgender community people where they can directly contact the office and work independently.
  3. Location of profound places where transgender people live so that if parents deny acceptance, they can easily reach them.
  4. A blog post section where transgender people will post about their lives, their ups and downs so that newcomers will be motivated.

Challenges we ran into

  1. Developing an AI bot turned out to be more challenging than we expected, particularly during the training phase. We found that refining the bot's responses demanded attention to detail. This meant carefully adjusting and fine-tuning its programming to ensure accurate and helpful interactions with users. The process required thorough testing and adjustment to create our bot that could effectively address the diverse needs and queries of our users.
  2. We faced significant hurdles in sourcing job opportunities and safe housing options for transgender individuals, highlighting the systemic barriers they often encounter.
  3. Learning to work with the MERN stack for the first time posed unexpected difficulties, requiring extra effort to navigate through its various technologies.
  4. Connecting smoothly to the backend posed unexpected challenges, significantly complicating our tasks beyond initial expectations.
  5. Additionally, we encountered challenges such as integrating maps for shelter and job locations, as well as identifying specific questions that transgender individuals may have. These issues have been noted for future improvements and enhancements to better address the needs of our users.
