Good Food is a London-based non-profit focused on nutritional education. The organization needs a tool that helps children and teenagers to eat healthy and get track of what they eat.
Project duration: Feb. 2022 to April. 2022.
The problem
Childrenand teenagers weight gain has been a silent and continuous pandemic that is trigged by the lack of knowledge on nutritional issues related on everyday meals.
The goal

My role

responsive website design from conception to delivery

digital wireframing, low and high-fidelity prototyping, conducting usability studies, accounting for accessibility, iterating on designs, determining information architecture, and responsive design.
UNDERSTANDING THE USER
RESEARCH DETAILS
After conducting interviews, I created empathy maps to understand the users and their needs. A primary user group identified through this research was health professionals who would like to educate young patients.
Also, children in the community have been gaining weight due to their diet habits what worries parents and health agents responsible for their health.
STUDY BASE
Using WHO data to develop interview questions about nutritional habits, I wanted to check how eating habits are influenced by the lack of knowledge about the effect each food has in the body, and how nutrition professionals could contribute to help educate children in school environment. The feedback received made it clear that nutritional education in schools has suffered with the lack of interest as a learning subject and promoting weight gain.

WHAT I LEARNED
I learned
throughout the project that the initial wireframes are really just ideas that will
change with feedbacks and user research, they really don’t define 100% the user’s
needs. So, usability study is a key part of the process.
