Recent projects
Male Contraception Video Game!
As part of our advocacy efforts, we are always looking for new and interesting ways to engage with the general public. With this in mind, we would like to develop a simple video game that can either live on our website (malecontraceptive.org) or on mobile devices. We envision a retro, 8-bit style game akin to arcade games in the 1980s (e.g., Pac-Man, Frogger, Space Invaders), but with one catch: it has to incorporate subject matter from our work. This could involve incorporating imagery (e.g., sperm) or structuring gameplay around male contraception. That will be up to the project team to decide along with your counterparts at MCI. By the end of the project we expect: Gameplay video Working prototype built in the most appropriate engine

Landscape Analysis of Manufacturers & Distributors in the Field of Contraception
We wish to develop a landscape analysis for contraceptive manufacturers around the globe. We want you to assist us in developing this resource that will allow us to identify potential partnerships for down-stream licensing and manufacture of non-hormonal male contraceptive methods. Efforts will focus on identifying manufacturers working in both the male and female Contraceptive space. For this project, you will need to: Work with Male Contraceptive Initiative Team to identify key variables to be included in desk research. Conduct desk research to identify organizations manufacturing contraceptive products around the globe. Synthesize desk research into a report and simple searchable database (e.g. Spreadsheet). You will have access to our Executive Director who will communicate regularly with you and provide all the information and clarification needed.

With this in mind, we would like to develop a simple video game that can either live on our website (malecontraceptive.org) or on mobile devices. As such, it will need to be developed with this functionality in mind.
