Sophia Silva

I’m Sophia Silva, I’m eighteen years old and I’m from Chile. I have participated three times in Technovation Girls Chile, reaching the semi-finals in one instance and the quarter finals in another. Because of these instances, I have decided to study computer engineering at university.

Below is the pitch video for the inWORKsive app.

Learn about Sophia’s Technovation experience, her expectations and challenges, and how she and her team overcame issues while building an AI model to match employees and prospective employers. 

教程

Based upon the initial work done by Sophia and the Business Girls inWORKsive team using Machine Learning for Kids and App Inventor, we have a tutorial to show you how to take the app to the next level using Python and Streamlit.

其他解决方案

Here are a few more solutions to spark ideas for you for SDG 8. Click each tab to see some possible features and what coding components you could use to build a similar app.

FAIRWORK

This crowdsourced app would allow users to rate and review employers based on fair wages, ethical practices, and safe working conditions.

Users can find locations on a map to find employers
You can use a Location Sensor to detect location of user, or let them zoom into a location on a Map and then provide an information box about each company, with a separate Screen to provide more detailed information about a company.

Allow users to report ethical violations
You can use TextBoxes and Images for users to enter information. Then use a cloud database to store the information that could then be forwarded via Text or Email to proper authorities.

Allow users to upvote or downvote other user ratings for companies
You can use a simple set of Buttons that will affect a score for a company. then use a Label or Image to display a score or rating for a given company.
气泡
Worker Forum
You can add a forum feature by using a cloud database that stores the forum threads. You will most likely need some sort of Signin or Login feature to monitor users.

SKILLBOOST

This app could use a machine learning model to analyze trends in the job market to recommend micro-courses for high-demand skills.

Train an AI model based on job trends in locations
You can use a machine learning platform to train an AI Model based on historical job information. Based on the model as well as skills input by the user via TextBoxes could then provide a list of suggested courses the user could take to upskill for those positions.
Youtube 徽标
Link out to Youtube playlists
Based on the job trends, provide the user with links to Youtube videos with a VideoPlayer or WebViewer component.

Display course materials
You can use a WebViewer to allow users to view micro-course materials directly in the app.

CHILD LABOR CHECK

This app would allow users to check brands they are buying to make sure they are ethically sourced and do not use child labor.

Take pictures to check brand tags
You can use the Camera or BarcodeScanner to let users scan a barcode or brand image. Then you can use a Web API to check how ethical the brand is.
信息图标
Provide information to consumers about child labor laws
Use a combination of Labels, Images and Videos to provide useful information to people about ethical practices around child labor around the world.

Train a machine learning model to give a brand a risk score
Based on location, industry, and historical data, create an AI Model that can give a risk score for how likely it is to have ethics violations in relation to child labor.
放大镜
Companies can send proof of ethical standards
You can allow companies to provide proof of good ethical practices, storing their information in a cloud database, also using that information to update AI models. Users can also verify companies following laws or report violations.
