JamiiCare Alliance
JamiiCare Alliance aims to address the specific problem of limited access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information, services, and support for young people in Tanzania, especially adolescent girls and young women. This problem is part of the larger global challenge outlined in the 4HERPOWER Challenge.
In Tanzania, as in many Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), young people face substantial barriers to accessing comprehensive SRHR resources. Gender inequalities, socio-cultural norms, and economic disparities are deeply rooted issues that hinder young people's ability to exercise their right to the highest attainable standard of health, which includes sexual and reproductive health.
The scale of the problem in Tanzania is significant. According to UNFPA, the unmet need for SRHR services, information, and commodities remains high in LMICs, including Tanzania. Girls and young women in Tanzania confront specific challenges when it comes to accessing SRHR care. Limited access to comprehensive sexuality education, economic exclusion, transportation barriers, stigma, and societal taboos all hinder their access to SRHR services. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated these challenges, disproportionately affecting young people.
These challenges are not unique to Tanzania; they are mirrored in many LMICs. Globally, millions of young people face similar obstacles. The lack of access to SRHR resources and information restricts young individuals from making informed decisions about their sexual and reproductive health, exercising bodily autonomy, and participating fully in society and their economies. This not only impacts their health and well-being but also hinders their contributions to society.
JamiiCare Alliance's solution addresses these challenges by harnessing the power of technology and innovation. Our voice-driven mental health platform listens and analyzes emotional-based metrics, vocal biomarkers, and offers support to individuals struggling with emotional and mental health pressures. This platform is designed to break down traditional barriers to access. It provides a safe and confidential space for young people, particularly adolescent girls and young women, to seek support and information related to their SRHR.
Our solution recognizes the pivotal role that young individuals play in shaping their health trajectories and empowers them as active agents of change within their communities. By using technology to provide access to SRHR information and support, we can directly contribute to improving SRHR outcomes, increasing knowledge, and reducing stigma and barriers to care for young people.
In Tanzania, millions of young people could benefit from improved access to SRHR information and emotional support. Beyond Tanzania, the principles behind our solution can be adapted and scaled to address the global challenge of limited access to SRHR information and services for young people in LMICs.
Our approach combines technology, data analysis, and the active engagement of young people, making it a viable solution to a widespread and pressing problem. JamiiCare Alliance is committed to making a meaningful, equitable, and sustainable impact in the field of sexual and reproductive health and rights for young people, particularly adolescent girls and young women, in Tanzania and beyond.
JamiiCare Alliance's solution is a user-friendly, voice-driven mental health and well-being platform designed to improve access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information, services, and emotional support for young people, with a primary focus on adolescent girls and young women in Tanzania.
What is it?
Our solution is a mobile application that leverages voice recognition technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide a safe and confidential space for young people to address emotional and mental health pressures, access SRHR information, and receive personalized support.
What does it do?
- Emotional Support: The core function of our platform is to offer emotional support. Users can talk to the app, sharing their thoughts and feelings. The AI-powered system listens for vocal biomarkers and emotional cues to assess the user's emotional state.
- Data Analysis: The platform analyzes the user's voice to detect signs of emotional distress or well-being. It considers factors like tone, speed, and content of speech to understand the user's emotional state.
- Personalized Guidance: Based on the analysis, the platform provides users with personalized guidance and suggestions for improving their emotional well-being. If a user indicates stress or anxiety, the app can offer relaxation techniques or suggest contacting a mental health professional.
- SRHR Information: The app also offers comprehensive SRHR information, including sexual education, family planning, and information about accessing SRHR services. Users can inquire about specific topics, and the platform provides accurate and relevant information.
How it works:
Users download the JamiiCare Alliance mobile app from app stores.
After registering, users can start a conversation with the app, sharing their thoughts and feelings or asking questions related to SRHR.
The app uses voice recognition technology to analyze the user's voice and detect emotional cues.
Based on the analysis, the app provides immediate feedback, suggestions, and emotional support.
Users can also access a library of SRHR resources and information through the app.
Technology Used:
- Voice Recognition Technology: We employ state-of-the-art voice recognition technology to analyze users' speech patterns and emotional cues.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): Our platform utilizes AI algorithms to interpret the vocal biomarkers and emotional cues, providing personalized guidance.

Our solution aims to empower young people, particularly adolescent girls and young women, to take control of their emotional well-being and SRHR. By providing a user-friendly and confidential platform that leverages voice technology and AI, we bridge the gap in accessing emotional support and essential SRHR information, contributing to a healthier and more informed young population in Tanzania
JamiiCare Alliance's solution primarily serves young people in Tanzania, with a special emphasis on adolescent girls and young women. This population, due to various socio-cultural norms, gender inequalities, and limited access to healthcare resources, is currently underserved in terms of their sexual and reproductive health and overall well-being. We aim to impact their lives in the following ways:
1. Improved Access to Emotional Support:
Many young people, especially adolescent girls and young women, face emotional and mental health pressures but may lack access to appropriate support. Our solution offers a safe and confidential space for them to express their emotions and receive personalized guidance, thereby improving their emotional well-being.
2. Enhanced SRHR Information and Education:
The lack of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health education and information is a significant barrier for young people. Our platform provides accessible, accurate, and stigma-free information about SRHR, empowering them to make informed decisions about their sexual and reproductive health.
3. Breakdown of Stigma and Barriers:
Societal taboos and stigma often deter young people, particularly girls and young women, from seeking essential SRHR care. Our platform provides an anonymous and stigma-free environment for them to inquire about SRHR topics, reducing these barriers.
4. Privacy and Confidentiality:
The platform prioritizes privacy and confidentiality, which is crucial when addressing sensitive topics related to SRHR. Users can discuss their concerns and receive support without fear of judgment or disclosure.
5. Empowerment of Young Women:
Adolescent girls and young women, in particular, will benefit from a platform that understands and addresses their unique SRHR needs. By focusing on their well-being and empowerment, we aim to contribute to their overall development and participation in society.
6. Data-Driven Insights:
The solution not only offers support but also collects data on users' emotional states and SRHR inquiries. This information can be used to identify trends and provide more targeted resources and support over time.
7. Holistic Health and Well-being:
By addressing emotional health and SRHR together, our solution promotes a holistic approach to health and well-being. This is especially crucial for young people as they navigate the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood.
8. Cross-Sector Collaboration:
We enable young people to be active agents of change within their communities. Through access to accurate SRHR information and support, we empower them to engage in cross-sector collaboration, including advocacy for legal and policy changes related to SRHR.
9. Local and Global Impact:
While our initial focus is on young people in Tanzania, the principles behind our solution can be adapted and scaled to address the global challenge of limited access to SRHR information and services for young people in LMICs.
By serving young people in Tanzania, especially adolescent girls and young women, our solution has the potential to directly and meaningfully impact their lives by offering the support they need, providing SRHR information, breaking down barriers, and empowering them to take control of their emotional well-being and sexual and reproductive health. This, in turn, will contribute to healthier, more informed, and more actively engaged youth, which is a vital component of sustainable development and progress in Tanzania and beyond.

- Pilot: An organization testing a product, service, or business model with a small number of users
At the pilot stage, our solution, JamiiCare Alliance, is currently serving a pilot group of 500 individuals. We are actively engaging with this initial user base to gather feedback, refine our platform, and ensure that it effectively meets their needs. This pilot phase allows us to test and validate our solution in a controlled environment before scaling up to reach a larger audience.
JamiiCare Alliance's solution is innovative in several ways:
- Voice-Driven Technology: Our platform leverages voice recognition technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide personalized emotional support and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information to young people. This approach is novel and addresses the issue of limited access to emotional support and SRHR information through a user-friendly, voice-driven interface. It ensures accessibility for users who may not be comfortable with text-based interactions or who may have limited literacy skills.
- Holistic Well-being: Our solution takes a holistic approach to well-being by addressing emotional health and SRHR together. This integrated approach recognizes that emotional well-being is closely linked to sexual and reproductive health and rights. By providing a space for users to discuss emotional pressures and access SRHR information, we offer comprehensive support that aligns with the full spectrum of young people's needs.
- Privacy and Confidentiality: We prioritize user privacy and confidentiality, allowing young people to openly discuss their emotional well-being and SRHR concerns without fear of judgment or disclosure. This innovation addresses the challenge of stigma and confidentiality, which often deter young people, especially girls and young women, from seeking essential care and information.
- Meaningful Community Engagement: Our solution is not just designed for young people; it is designed with them. We actively involve young people in the co-creation and development of the platform. Their input, ideas, and agendas meaningfully guide the design and content of the app, ensuring it resonates with their preferences and needs.
- Data-Driven Insights: Our platform collects data on users' emotional states and SRHR inquiries. This data-driven approach allows us to continually improve the platform's effectiveness, provide more targeted resources and support over time, and contribute to a deeper understanding of the emotional and SRHR needs of young people.
- Cross-Sector Collaboration: We empower young people to participate in cross-sector collaboration, including advocacy for legal, policy, and SRHR-related changes. This collaborative approach not only provides support but also engages users as agents of change within their communities.
- Adaptability and Scalability: While our initial focus is on Tanzania, the principles behind our solution can be adapted and scaled to address the global challenge of limited access to SRHR information and services for young people in low- and middle-income countries. Our technology is adaptable to different languages and regions, making it a potential catalyst for broader positive impacts on a global scale.
By leveraging voice-driven technology, promoting emotional and SRHR well-being, ensuring privacy and confidentiality, and actively engaging young people in the design and implementation of the platform, we bring a fresh and comprehensive approach to addressing the challenges faced by young people, particularly adolescent girls and young women, in the context of SRHR. Our innovative solution has the potential to change the market by setting a new standard for accessible and holistic support, driving positive impacts in the field of SRHR, and encouraging further innovations that prioritize the needs and preferences of young people.
Next Year (2024):
- Increase Access and Usage: In the next year, our primary goal is to expand our user base to 5,000 individuals in Tanzania. We aim to achieve this by actively promoting the platform through partnerships with local NGOs, schools, and healthcare providers. Additionally, we will conduct awareness campaigns to reach more young people and encourage them to utilize the platform for emotional support and SRHR information.
- Improve Emotional Well-being: Our goal is to demonstrate a 30% improvement in self-reported emotional well-being among platform users. We will measure this through pre- and post-engagement assessments that evaluate emotional states and well-being levels. This improvement will be achieved through the personalized emotional support provided by our platform, coupled with access to relevant SRHR information.
- Strengthen SRHR Knowledge: We aim to increase SRHR knowledge among users, with a target of achieving a 40% increase in accurate SRHR information recall. This will be assessed through periodic quizzes and surveys integrated into the platform. We will achieve this by continuously updating and expanding our SRHR content library, ensuring that it remains comprehensive and up-to-date.
Next Five Years (2028):
- Scale to Regional Impact: Over the next five years, our goal is to expand our reach beyond Tanzania, impacting the lives of young people in neighboring East African countries. We aim to have a presence in at least three additional countries, reaching a total user base of 50,000 individuals across the region. This expansion will be facilitated by forging partnerships with regional organizations and leveraging our existing network.
- Promote SRHR Advocacy: We aspire to have 10% of our users actively engaged in SRHR advocacy efforts, either through participating in local initiatives or by joining online advocacy campaigns. To achieve this, we will incorporate advocacy resources and tools within the platform, encouraging and guiding users to become advocates for SRHR within their communities.
- Measure and Evaluate Long-Term Impact: In the next five years, we aim to conduct a comprehensive impact assessment to understand the long-term effects of our platform on the lives of young people. This assessment will include indicators related to mental health, SRHR outcomes, educational attainment, and overall well-being. It will provide valuable insights into the sustained positive impact of our solution.
How We Will Achieve These Goals:
- Continuous Iteration and Improvement: We will regularly gather user feedback to inform iterative improvements to the platform. This will ensure that it remains responsive to the evolving needs and preferences of young people.
- Strategic Partnerships: We will forge partnerships with local NGOs, schools, healthcare providers, and advocacy groups to expand our reach and maximize our impact. Collaborations with regional organizations will be key to achieving our five-year expansion goal.
- Community Engagement: We will continue to actively engage young people in the co-creation and development of the platform. Their input will be central in shaping the platform's features, content, and resources.
- Advocacy and Awareness Campaigns: We will conduct advocacy campaigns and awareness-raising initiatives to promote the importance of emotional well-being and SRHR among young people, creating a culture of openness and support.
Our theory of change for JamiiCare Alliance is built on the premise that by providing a user-friendly, voice-driven mental health platform, we can directly address the emotional well-being and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) needs of young people, especially adolescent girls and young women, in Tanzania. The core of our theory of change is based on the following logic:
1. Accessibility and Engagement: By offering a voice-driven platform, we make it easier for young people to access emotional support and SRHR information. The convenience of voice interactions encourages more young people to engage with the platform, providing a safe and confidential space for them to express their emotions and seek SRHR information.
2. Emotional Support: Through the analysis of vocal biomarkers and emotional cues, our platform provides personalized guidance and support, enabling users to take actionable steps to improve their emotional well-being. The provision of immediate support addresses the emotional pressures young people face, empowering them to better manage their mental health.
3. SRHR Education: The platform offers a comprehensive library of SRHR information, covering topics such as sexual education, family planning, and accessing SRHR services. Users can inquire about specific SRHR concerns, and the platform provides accurate and relevant information.
4. Reduction of Barriers: By offering an anonymous and stigma-free environment for young people to discuss emotional and SRHR concerns, our platform breaks down traditional barriers that hinder young people from seeking essential care. This leads to improved access to SRHR information and services.
5. Active Participation: Our solution encourages active participation of young people in cross-sector collaboration, including advocacy for legal, policy, and SRHR-related changes. As users become more informed about SRHR, they are more likely to engage in advocacy efforts, further influencing change within their communities and beyond.
Why We Expect Impact:
Our solution offers a holistic approach, addressing emotional well-being and SRHR together. By providing emotional support, access to SRHR information, and a platform for advocacy, we empower young people to make informed decisions about their SRHR and manage their emotional well-being effectively. This, in turn, leads to healthier, more informed, and more actively engaged young people.
Our approach is user-centered, as we actively engage with the community to ensure that the platform is tailored to meet their specific needs and preferences. We continually gather feedback and iterate on the platform to ensure it remains responsive to the evolving needs of young people.
By providing a user-friendly, confidential, and accessible solution that addresses the emotional and SRHR needs of young people, we expect to see a transformational impact on their lives, with improved emotional well-being, better SRHR knowledge, and an increased capacity for advocacy. We believe that these changes will have ripple effects on the broader community, creating a culture of support, openness, and empowerment regarding emotional and SRHR matters.
