The project seeks to boost partners’ commitment to avoiding imbalances in the way their roles and tasks are shared.

We-Be is a relationship wellbeing device halfway between a piece of jewelry and a high - tech ‘wearable’. The solution is designed to raise awareness on gender inequality and unpaid labor, and to boost partners’ commitment to avoiding imbalances in the way their roles and tasks are shared within the relationship. To this end both partners wear one device which indicates the emotional battery level of their partner. This helps the partners detect stressful situations, know when to extend support, and share out their tasks fairly.

The We-Be Team was composed by:

Bruna Camaroti - IED Barcelona

Heloise Simonneaux-Lanoix - IED Barcelona

Guillem Paris – UPC

Pol Carrera – UPC

Max Braeger - ESADE
