Overview

The online platform idea of Yuva was envisioned by Aishwarya Kalpathi, based in Chennai. Her vision to improve the transparency between the common people and authorities is the spark that initiated to start off of the Yuva platform. Yuva is a perfect blend of social media-like platforms and databases to give a positive impact and to foster better governance.

Problem Faced

In the current fast-paced society, it is hard for the people to raise the day-to-day issues to the government, and at the same time, it is hard for the elected representatives and authorities to identify and address issues in their locality or constituencies. Furthermore more there is a lack of knowledge about the authorities or responsible government agencies and hence raising issues and getting them addressed becomes a laborious process.

Goal

To create a world-class end-to-end platform for creating an active advocacy platform where people can raise the issues they face on a day-to-day basis and the corresponding government authority or the elected representative will be able to receive them and take actions to address them accordingly. The platform also had a database of the constituencies and local bodies of Tamilnadu and the corresponding parties and elected representatives currently and historically.

Solution

MacAppStudio designed and developed an end-to-end online active advocacy platform. The platform consists of a user app in which any resident of any constituency can create a campaign. Then this campaign can be supported by people in the same constituency. Once the campaign is supported by a minimum threshold of people this campaign is escalated to the elected representative of that region.

The elected representative can view the issue and address it and upon completion, the issue will be closed. There will be a ranking among constituencies with respect to the number of issues addressed on a regular basis.

In addition to this, the platform also has a huge database of the constituencies and local bodies of Tamilnadu and the corresponding parties and elected representatives currently and historically.
