PROBLEM STATEMENT:

The project addresses the challenge of decision-making in different life situations and particularly focuses on managing disorientation.

TARGET GROUP: Young Adults (ages 18-35): This group often faces significant life decisions related to career, relationships, and personal development. They may experience disorientation as they navigate these choices and transitions.

PROPOSED SOLUTION: This project entails hosting insightful events with speakers spanning psychology, economics, and spirituality, each offering unique perspectives on decision-making and coping with disorientation. Complementing these talks and panel discussions, engaging workshops will introduce attendees to diverse approaches for effectively managing disorientation. Furthermore, connecting with fellow young adults grappling with orientation challenges can provide attendees with a sense of togetherness, assuring them that they are not alone in their experiences.
