UniConnect

UniConnect is a web platform designed to simplify the process of buying, selling, or trading used textbooks, stationery, and other study materials among university students. The platform aims to foster a sense of community, connect students based on their needs, and contribute to environmentally friendly practices by encouraging the reuse of materials.

UniConnect

Project Overview

Why UniConnect?

UniConnect was born out of a clear goal: to empower students. The project addresses the financial burden of education, especially the high costs associated with textbooks. By creating a platform for affordable exchange of study materials, UniConnect strives to be the bridge that helps students access the resources they need without compromising their financial stability.

Additionally, UniConnect recognizes the environmental impact of student waste. Discarded materials contribute to environmental concerns, and UniConnect steps in to promote a more sustainable campus ecosystem by encouraging the reuse of materials, thereby reducing waste and environmental impact.
