Negotiabbles
»Negotiabbles is highly relevant because it addresses an everyday challenge: children’s difficulty articulating their needs and resolving conflicts verbally. The jury was impressed by the thoughtful use of AI-driven, voice-based role-play activities that actively foster negotiation skills and emotional understanding in a manner that is appropriate for children and psychologically safe. The project’s research-informed, child-centered design is noteworthy. It integrates narrative scenarios, emotional visualization through form and color, and intuitive voice interaction, supporting individuals with diverse abilities and limited reading skills. The project's strong commitment to privacy and trust, as well as its inclusion of friends, parents, and educators, enhances its credibility and societal relevance.«
