The problem CogniLink solves
- Difficulty in Daily Tasks:
- Individuals with limited mobility face significant challenges in performing routine tasks such as preparing meals or managing basic chores independently due to their physical limitations.
-
Lack of Suitable Community Platforms:
- Conventional social media and community platforms are not adequately designed to cater to the needs of differently abled individuals. There's a lack of inclusive, comfortable, and value-adding community solutions for people with disabilities.
-
**Isolation and Need for Connection:
- Differently abled individuals often feel isolated, lacking a platform that not only addresses their daily challenges but also fosters connections with like-minded individuals to share ideas, creative solutions, and form meaningful connections.
-
Impact of the Pandemic:
- The pandemic exacerbated the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities, especially those reliant on caregivers for daily tasks. Access to support and solutions became more crucial as isolation increased.
-
Empowerment through Small Wins:
- Celebrating and sharing small victories or life hacks significantly motivates differently abled individuals. Providing a space to share these solutions can empower them and encourage them to engage more in their community.
The goal is to address these problem statements by creating a community-driven platform like Sharability (or CogniLink) that offers a practical, accessible, and supportive space for differently abled individuals to share life hacks, connect with peers, and empower each other.
