Cradlr: Helping Refugee Children with App Design

Designer Jiang Jian was chosen by Design Incubation as the 2020 Creative Works Award Winner for her UX/UI Design Project, Cradlr, that aims to create a global network to help displaced children all over the world.Wars, political persecution, famines, pandemics, natural disasters, and more have displaced nearly 80 million people, 26 million of them are registered refugees and half of them are under age of 18, and most without access to cell phones or other communication devices. The Cradlr Network is a place where temporary guardians, international and regional organizations, as well as volunteers, can collect these children's stories and data and store in a database which will become a collective digital memory, as well as a resource to connect lives on a global scale to rescue and nurture refugee children. With her design, Jiang Jian hopes to find a humanitarian solution for a complex social challenge.Learn more here:Cradlr: A Design Project for Refugee Children from Jing Zhou Studio on Vimeo.
