Introducing the FLW Advisory Panel: Co-Designing for Impact
Dimagi, in collaboration with The Resilience Collaborative (TRC), has launched the Frontline Worker (FLW) Advisory Panel that brings together a group of FLWs who are central to shaping digital tools that truly reflect their needs and realities.
This panel plays a pivotal role in guiding the design and development of WellMe—a Resilience and Wellbeing application for Frontline workers, powered by CommCare. WellMe supports healthy routines through evidence-based learning and practical activities, helping FLWs adopt and sustain behaviors that build resilience. Beyond WellMe, the panel will also contribute to the evidence base for designing and implementing other digital solutions that support FLWs around the world.
We hosted the first FLW Advisory Panel session in April, bringing together ten FLWs from Nigeria, USA, India, Ethiopia and Kenya. The session introduced their role on the panel and featured a guest talk by Dr. Rajesh Parekh, a resilience expert, who spoke about the neuroscience behind resilience and core resilience building skills such as stress management, self-care, mindfulness, relaxation, connection to others, and connection to purpose.

Over the next six months, the panel will focus on five key areas:
- - Shaping WellMe’s Design: FLWs will directly influence the features and functionality of WellMe.
- - Building Professional Skills: Panel members will gain hands-on experience in human-centered design, provide structured product feedback, and build core resilience skills such as stress management, mindfulness, and connection.
- - Learning & Peer Exchange: The panel creates space for cross-country collaboration, allowing FLWs to learn from and connect with one another, forming a supportive global network.
- - Amplifying FLW Voices: Members will be spotlighted across platforms to celebrate their role and contributions to advancing frontline wellbeing.
- - Strengthening the Evidence Base: Insights from the panel will inform the design and implementation of future digital tools that empower FLWs to adopt evidence-based behaviors that foster resilience.

Established and facilitated by Dimagi, the FLW Advisory Panel will ensure that frontline perspectives not only inform but actively drive innovation. Through ongoing co-design and continuous feedback, panel members are helping shape interventions that are contextually grounded, relevant, and impactful across diverse settings.
Together, we are building tools with frontline workers — not just for them. To learn more about Dimagi’s work in developing and deploying digital tools for resilience building, please reach out to us at wellme@dimagi.com
