Jaago

By listening to the experiences of others, we can build a world where everyone seeks to understand one another.

This is why we are asking for your stories. We strive to share as many diverse stories as we can. Your stories will be used to help people learn and measurably grow by building their skills in empathy.

Your experiences are important, and sharing them will allow others to learn from you. We recognize that every person is unique and that their stories live at the intersection of specific times, places, and various aspects of their identities.

Our aim is to connect people to stories that both share and have differences across these dimensions.

Your experience within the Jaago app involves sharing a little about yourself by creating an intersectionality profile. Your profile will be used to match you to other storytellers' stories that help build your empathy superpower. Your data will never be shared with anyone, so please share to the level that you feel comfortable.

Within the application you will be able to upload your own 3 minutes or less stories, watch crowdsourced stories from others, practice empathy by answering questions proceeding the stories, reviewing your answers, reflection questions, and measuring your score. You will be able to explore various themes as Jaago will design a unique journey for you. This is a judgement free private space for you. Please watch, grow, and share to help build the community of people that understand one and another.

If you find any stories that do not meet our rules and guidelines you can flag them for review. We will review all stories to ensure they align with our guidelines. Any stories that do not meet our guidelines will be immediately removed.
