Co-creation is when participants and key stakeholders themselves are central to the process of designing solutions. This approach challenges the idea that interventions should be designed for individuals, and instead focuses on contextualising interventions through designing solutions by the very individuals who will be using them.This ODI Case study explores the experiences and reflections that emerged from designing and implementing a co-creation process. The project, funded by Fondation Botnar, was aiming to respond to mental health and well-being challenges facing adolescents in Tanzania and Viet Nam by co-creating digital and non-digital solutions. In the context of Covid-19, it also presents insights that can be used to inform what a co-design process should consider in practice, as well as a few lessons learnt and suggestions on how to do things differently in future.
