Experiencing inspiring human stories can trigger a powerful and intrinsic motivational force in learners to take action.
Background
On October 20th, in the year of Our lord and the Great, Great pandemic, 2020, the military opened fire on innocent unarmed civilians protesting bad governance and police brutality. I was only saved by the simple fact that I got home just one hour before the military arrived.
What ensued was a blood bath and nationwide riots, with more violence and bloodshed. What was reported was a mixed bag of propaganda, understatement (in the case of government-controlled media) or exaggerations. In between were social media-powered fabricated news bites.
This was an experience that drove me to this project.
Inscription of Nigerian protest slogan.
Censorship of the media has silenced important stories that need to be told. Thus, Stories of Impact are not directly equated to honest and unbiased media coverage
Competitive Analysis
With multimedia and independent newsroom being a heated and hot topic, I alongside my partner wanted to explore what apps and websites are currently on the market and how One Spark could stand out and be best positioned to solve the need for credible news as well as be the bridge to which much-needed aids are accessible.
