We Encourage Oy Ltd

✨AINO - A conversational AI tool for victims of domestic violence✨ To support our mission towards equality, We Encourage builds a conversational Artificial Intelligence tool AINO for providing psycho-social support and guidance to women victims of intimate partner violence, gender-based violence, and promoting sexual and reproductive health. Violence against women – particularly intimate partner violence and sexual violence – is a major public health problem and a violation of women’s human rights. Global estimates published by WHO indicate that about 1 in 3 (35%) of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetime. The AI tool is expected to act as a reliable source of information for women on their rights and where to seek different levels of support. The tool will be providing step by step recommendations to victims and act as a helping friend. This intervention is expected to address a chronic development issue and to have a cross-cutting impact on SDG 3 (ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages) and SDG 5 ( Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls). Furthermore, the AI tool could also help in building a network for anonymous peer to peer support networks among users who are experiencing similar incidents. The tool is build in collaboration with violence survivors, professionals, and collaborating NGOs. ✨We Encourage CSR - YOUR PARTNER IN BUILDING THE BEST SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM ✨ Half of a company’s reputation is based on the public’s feelings about what the company is doing to support the community.

LifeBonder

Why We are going against the narrative to battle loneliness and the negative impact of social media because we want to design a platform to increase the quality of life!

At LifeBonder we want to take the lead with a human-centric social media platform designed with a purpose - to increase people’s quality of life by meeting new connections in-person. Therefore, encouraging physical activity, preventing isolation and thereby increasing mental health. We aim to design a safe platform to connect with like-minded people. We encourage people to go out and enjoy shared experiences off-platform by suggesting activities in the local area that they're both into.

At LifeBonder, we're on a mission to end loneliness and break social media addiction, fake personas, cyber-bullying, cancel culture by providing a Mesaverse that lives up to the promise of what social media can be: A safe place to facilitate human connections rather than replace them. We want to fill a growing need for direct socializing outside social media - connecting people in friendships that are human, profound, and meaningful. Providing people with local options (local businesses) to encourage physical activity and supporting businesses around them. LifeBonder makes it easy for people to connect in a deeper reality through shared spaces, values, and goals because our vision is to build social bonds in real life.
