Solutions against coronavirus using Mind 

 Mapping 

 1 . Challenge & Selection 

 During the last few weeks , I participated in the local coronavirus taskforce witch has a preventive and a curative 

 mission as the virus is spreading very fast word wide . 

 A lot of stakeholders are concerned by this mission , doctors , government , volunteers , media and more ; and the 

 first priority was to develop a better understanding of the current reality . That is the reason why I suggested the 

 mind mapping tool as we need to maximize the communication quality of all kinds of data and insights and make 

 them as easier as possible to communicate between all the stakeholders 

 And as we know , the mind mapping tool is the best alternative to develop a common mind regarding the current   reality of the situation we are dealing with . 

 2 . Application 

 Given the current context and to guarantee the safety of participants , we used online tools to collect ideas , gather   data and feedbacks and event to discuss and collaborate . 

 To do that , we used : 

 ● Google Drive for document and forms 

 ● MindMeister to create collaborative Mind Maps 

 ● Zoom for videoconference 

 As a start , we created a Google form document with a full description of the problem , we asked few questions to   know the person who is answering our questions : name , phone number , gender , age , email address , questions to   measure the level of understanding of the actual problem and finally their suggestions or ideas to solve the   problem . 

 After 24 hours , we used to answers we collected to : 

 1 . Define the directions we should take by defining the branches of the mindmap that represent the most   important areas about our central topic . 

 Branches of the​ Solutions gainst Coronavirus​ mind map 

 2 . Define the workgroups of more or less 20 participants based on the contributor ’s profiles . For that , we   made sure to represent all types of profiles in groups based on the area of interest , age , gender , etc . 

 An example of a Zoom call for a groupwork 

 We assigned a facilitator for every workgroup witch the mission was basically to fluid the communication between   the team . 

 We assigned a branch for each team with a mission to expand it to subbranches and then to elaborate and grow   the sub - branches during 5 meetings , 40 minutes each . 

 We set some small rules : 

 ● Use single keywords rather than long text to help focus on one single idea per branch or sub - branch and   simplify the topic as much as possible . 

 ● Use legible and clear words in order to make it easier for the other participants or the teams to read it . 

 ● Use visual elements such as colors , shapes and icons to represent ideas 

 Elaborating a sub - branch 

 3 . Insight & Approach 

 What I have learned from conducting this exercise with several groups is that mind mapping is one of the most 

 efficient methods that help to ​organize ideas for ​more understanding of the situations through breaking things 

 down into smaller parts ; ​divide and conquer , as they say​. 

 The mind map graphic gives the different teams a better understanding of the central topic witch help them to 

 share their perspectives and develop common solution or suggestion built on the base of the sum of the 

 intelligence of the workgroup . 

 Conducting this exercise helped me develop my understand of the use of the mind map tool . It also gave me the 

 idea that it can be used in collaboration with other design thinking tools and methods .
