The core issue is the widespread culture of avoiding discussions on safety problems in tertiary education institutions. Apprehension regarding negative reputation, reprisals, and skepticism frequently hinders pupils from speaking out. Moreover, the absence of sufficient support mechanisms and aids can deepen the trauma encountered.

As a design student completing my first full-fledged UX and UI project, I've gained invaluable insights into the intricate process of crafting user-centered experiences.
I have developed a deeper understanding of the importance of user research in empathizing with target audiences and uncovering their needs, and iterative design process.
However, overcoming challenges such as time constraints and resource limitations was a learning experience. I also encountered challenges along the way, such as balancing design constraints with user requirements.
Overall, this project has equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to tackle future design challenges with confidence.
