Built for UNICEF Climate and Health Innovation Challenge 2026 # LeadUp ChildShield ## Climate & Child Health Early Warning System *Submission for UNICEF Climate and Health Innovation Challenge 2026* --- ## 📌 Overview LeadUp ChildShield is an *early warning system* that protects Nigerian children from climate-related health risks. It connects community volunteers, PHC workers, and school representatives into a unified reporting and alert platform. *This repository contains a UX simulation* – a fully interactive, clickable prototype demonstrating the intended user experience of the proposed system. --- ## 🎯 Problem We Solve In Nigeria today: - 🌊 *Flooding* → Waterborne diseases, drowning, displacement - 🔥 *Extreme heat* → Dehydration, heatstroke, school closures - 💧 *Unsafe water* → Diarrhea (2nd leading cause of child death) - 🦟 *Climate-sensitive diseases* → Malaria, cholera outbreaks - 📉 *School absenteeism* → Disrupted education, child protection concerns *The core problem:* These signals exist but remain disconnected. No system links community reports to health facilities, schools, or the authorities who can act. *LeadUp ChildShield closes this gap.* --- ## 🚀 Key Features (Demonstrated in Prototype) | Feature | Description | |---------|-------------| | 📝 *Reporting Form* | 6 climate-health issues (flooding, heat, unsafe water, diarrhea, malaria, absenteeism) | | 🧠 *AI Risk Scoring* | Simulated ML pattern recognition and predictive analytics | | 📊 *Dashboard* | Real-time risk visualization, interactive map, KPI metrics | | 🔔 *Alert Inbox* | Priority-coded alerts with actionable guidance | | 🏢 *Authority Alerting* | Automatic routing to responsible agencies (NEMA, NCDC, etc.) | | ⏱️ *Escalation* | Unacknowledged alerts escalate to higher authorities | | ✅ *Community Verification* | Reporters verify resolution before …
