SexEd for the masses

Our primary goal is to promote safer sexual health practices and responsible family planning in a fun, engaging and nounish way.

🏅 P 0 A P

Unprotected sexual activities significantly contribute to the transmission of STIs and unplanned pregnancies. According to the CDC, young people aged 15–24 years represent just over one-quarter of the sexually active population, yet they account for half of the 20 million new sexually transmitted infections that occur in the United States each year (and this doesn't even consider central and south america). On top of this, the unintended pregnancy rate in the U.S. remains high compared to other developed countries.

One of the most effective strategies to combat these public health challenges is to provide easy access to condoms, along with comprehensive sexual health education. However, cost and accessibility can pose significant barriers, particularly among marginalized or economically disadvantaged populations.

Roadmap

While we aim to stick to the proposal as much as possible, we've been forced to improvise to fulfill our objective and our proposal's original timeline has changed due to unforeseen circumstances: the main one being the bureaucratic requirements of purchasing in bulk for a better price to maximize our impact.

Following dates may be subject to change, but we'll make sure to keep the community updated.

Graphic Design: Branding + Packaging + more...

We'll start by preparing initial branding for CondoNOUNS (logo, colors, fonts, etc.) and some social media presence to keep the community updated on what's going on. This website itself is part of that effort.

We'll also begin drafting packaging ideas so we're ready when we finally get the product delivered.

Estimated completion: by July, 2023
Status: In Progress

Educational Content Preparation

Let's be honest: we've got a diverse team, and we know a thing or two, but we're not go-to experts in sexual health. We reached out in our network to get a real expert, someone with credentials in SexEd to help us prepare the educational material.

We already held a Twitter Space on July 28th with where we answered some common questions around the topic, and we'll use this to prepare the materials we'll be sharing. You can listen to it here:

Condom Production / Purchase

We looked into a couple of options to procure the condoms:

Partnering with a local factory. We'll make sure they comply with local and international regulation to make sure we deliver a safe product, and we'll make sure to share with the community any permits, certifications or applicable inspections.
Explore purchasing in bulk from trusted brands.

We've decided to pick the second route: purchasing in bulk from a trusted brand that already works with the Mexican government.

While we faced some bureaucratic challenges that we've since sorted out, we've already purchased a sample of the product that we gave away during ETH Mexico.

Estimated completion: selection by July, 2023 - production/purchase TBD
Status: Production Started

Plan Condom Distribution

Once we've procured the condoms, finished the educational material and packaged it all for distribution, we'll setup "missions" of team members to deliver the fun!

As we mentioned in our proposal, we'll do our best to partner with as many local people as possible to amplify the message as much as possible. For this purpose, we'll be researching and preparing plans for the locations we'll be visiting.

Estimated completion: through 2023 (maybe 2024)
