About the sponsor

OneWorld UK

OneWorld is a non-profit UK-based organisation which innovates new media, mobile and web technologies for social good, helping people across the world to improve their lives and become active citizens. OneWorld engages partners across government, civil society, and the private sectors, to ensure programme sustainability. In the last few years, OneWorld has been working primarily in the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and governance sectors, using human centered design approach and agile program management.
By working with target audiences to design solutions, OneWorld ensures at every step of the way that we are meeting their needs and creating a product that they are interested in using. This means OneWorld would work with youth, through a series of co-creation and testing workshops, to design new elements of its platform in Senegal – what is offered, what these elements look and feel like. The process then follows an iterative process, always feeding back and testing with users as the product is being developed and incorporating results from testing sessions. This process continues throughout the program’s lifespan, continually testing and improving offerings.
