Brief

WRS Global is a school that uses technology to give children in need around the world a high-quality education that is affordable, scalable, durable, immediate and certified, with a focus on refugee students.

I designed a concept for a complete internal platform for WRS students, built to create a strong community between students and teachers.

Takeaway

Designing for refugee students was deeply rewarding. A platform that brings students and teachers together showed me how much inclusive, collaborative design matters in education.

Understanding the needs of students in hard circumstances made empathy the starting point, and reaffirmed my commitment to using technology for social impact through accessible, engaging learning.
