The goal of this project is to design and develop a Community Activities Page for the Minivillage platform to enhance resident engagement and social connections in multi-unit buildings. Students will conduct research, create designs, and build the page, incorporating key features like event listings, RSVP functionality, and filters. They will also test and refine the page to ensure usability and alignment with Minivillageโ€™s mission of fostering community resilience and belonging. Through this project, students will gain practical experience in research, design, and development while contributing to a meaningful, community-focused initiative.
