Overview:

OasisEase aims to create a supportive community garden environment through an online platform, providing engaging gardening activities for individuals living alone with limited time, finances, and space. Our goal is to effectively alleviate their stress, anxiety, and depression in the early stages of daily life.

Theory Of Change:

The Problem:

-Young people living alone in apartments lack the means to reasonably cope with feelings of isolation and stress.

-The lack of affordable gardening knowledge and resources makes it difficult for them to find a sustainable solution.

-There is a lack of ways to meet other plant lovers to help people find new friends through a common hobby.

Intervention:

-Accessible and abundant growing spaces in London at your fingertips

-Addressing the issue of abandoned plants during relocation

-Facilitating shared plant care and fostering new social connections

-Collaborating with plant institutions to offer enhanced and expert plant knowledge

Impact:

By promoting positive interaction with plants, it enables people living alone to overcome time, financial and spatial constraints. This not only improves their overall well-being, but also relieves inner anxiety, reduces stress and depression.
