Project Overview
The Problem
Nigeria is facing a growing diabetes crisis, but there's a huge gap in diabetes education and management resources. Many healthcare providers don't have access to the latest diabetes care protocols, and patients often struggle to find reliable information about managing their condition. The existing resources were either too technical for most people or not culturally relevant to the Nigerian context.
The Solution
My team created a comprehensive digital platform that provides evidence-based diabetes education specifically designed for the Nigerian healthcare system. The site includes educational modules for healthcare professionals, patient management tools, and community support features. I made sure the content is accessible to people with different literacy levels and includes local cultural considerations.
Target Audience
The platform serves healthcare professionals, diabetes patients, caregivers, and medical institutions across Nigeria who need better resources for diabetes management and education.
