- At what stage is your proposal?
- Design (Prototype/MVP in development)
- What category/categories do you want to address with your idea?
- Education
- Describe the need or problem you want to address
- There are few opportunities that Belizean children from the countryside or the inner city can learn some of the basic life success factors that thier counterparts from previlaged areas such as Belmopan or north Belize City are exposed to. This book will do the hard work of unearthing the secrets of success that are specific to Belize and will put them in print and electronic format in a way that most, if not all children, can acces and use. We will tease out the secrets in a way that is a specialized field of research and simplify complex knowledge into some basic truths of life. We will then package these so that teachers and schools can impart and reinforce.
- What is the main product or service you will offer?
- The first product is a book with life experiences of the most successful Belizeans alive. A workbook to test appreciation and the nuances that these success stories convey through their interviews placed online. The second output is therefore online educational content for chidren who are not strong readers but need to learn and benefit just as well from listening and observing the noverbal messages from successful people. In these videos, we will have Belize's most successful minds give business ideas and life skills advice to people who will most likely never get to meet and get lessons from highly successful people.
- Briefly describe the community or population that will benefit from your solution and how do you plan to involve them in the project
- We will benefit childern that have a natural inclination for independence and leadership. In the rural areas and inner city these traits can lead children to do good or bad things. We will lead them to the path that has been taken by the people in society who choose to go down the path of good. We will help prepare them for a life of challenges.
- Does your proposal have a business model (i.e. strategy to generate revenue)? Please describe
- Yes. We will publish a book of the findings and offer it to upper primary and high schools. The book will also come with a workbook. We envision that the books will be able to sell for $30 or $40 Belize dollars per copy and the workbook for $30. These books will be complemented by elearning interviews which schools that adopt the book will have free access to. We can easily manage the access to the videos.
