Humanistic Data from Developing Countries lacks Accuracy and Representability

• What does this mean?
• Problem Case 1: Poor research design
• Problem Case 2: NGO-side data manipulation </aside>

We are creating a unified data collection, analysis, and distribution platform that vertically integrates all organisations in a data value chain while being optimised for each organisation’s operational needs and workflows.

• What is our value proposition?
• What do we envision our solution will look like?
• What are the key features?
• Solution Case 1: Poor research design
• Solution Case 2: NGO-side data manipulation </aside>

The design of our platform and key features are based on numerous foundational assumptions. Our working list of assumptions and questions to validate and answer, together with how we aim to address them, is below:

Below is the project’s roadmap from ideation to building and testing an MVP. We plan to create a longer-term roadmap after evaluating feedback on our MVP.

1. March 1, 2026 to May 10, 2025: Brainstorming project features and underlying questions and assumptions; securing funding for validation.
2. May 10, 2025 to August 1, 2025: Building prototypes of project features; validation of underlying assumptions and testing of project prototypes through field visits and conversations with NGOs, research institutions, and government organisations; determining key features to include in MVP.
3. August 1, 2025 to December 1, 2025: Building an MVP
4. December 1, 2025 to February 1, 2026: Testing the MVP with stakeholders and refining its features

• What does our current idea of an MVP look like? </aside>
