Zoala and Forte360 Announce Strategic Partnership to Enhance Children's Wellbeing
Singapore – Zoala, a leading AI-powered mental wellness platform, and Forte360, a dedicated non-profit organisation focused on enhancing wellbeing support for children, have announced a strategic partnership to empower young minds and create a lasting impact on children’s mental health. This collaboration brings together Forte360’s community-driven initiatives with Zoala’s cutting-edge technology, ensuring comprehensive and accessible support for children, creating needs-based well-being support for children aged 7 to 12, using positive education to help them recognise and embrace their self-worth and potential.
The partnership is designed to integrate the unique strengths of both organisations, ensuring a seamless and continuous support system for students and educators. Through this collaboration:
- Forte360 will leverage Zoala’s platform to enhance the reach and effectiveness of their wellbeing support further. The integration of AI-powered mental wellness tools will create a continuity and feedback loop, reinforcing the impact of their initiatives while tracking children’s progress over time.
- Scaling Forte360’s Positive Education Practices: The platform enables Forte360 to provide structured emotional support to students through timely reflections, equipping them with practical strategies to build resilience and develop a healthier mindset. Schools benefit from AI-powered tools, data-driven insights, and structured well-being programs that foster a nurturing learning environment while enabling early identification and timely support for children in need. Parents gain peace of mind knowing their children have access to both human-led and technology-enhanced resources that prioritize their mental well-being.
By combining Zoala’s digital innovation with Forte360’s community-based approach, this partnership aims to bridge the gap in mental health support by proactively identifying and assisting children with low wellbeing who may not typically be categorized as ‘high needs’ or ‘at risk.’ Through early detection and intervention, the collaboration ensures that no child is left behind.
“We are excited to partner with Forte360 to create a holistic support system that combines technology and community-driven interventions,” said Rahul Vijayan, Co-founder of Zoala. “Together, we can ensure that more children, regardless of background, receive the emotional support they need to thrive.”
Divya Nanthakumaran, Founder & Managing Director of Forte360, added, “This partnership with Zoala is a significant step forward in ensuring children have access to structured, ongoing mental wellbeing support. By leveraging technology, we can expand our reach and provide targeted interventions to children who might otherwise go unnoticed.”
This collaboration is designed to bring tangible benefits to both children and the educational institutions that support them:
👧 For Children:
A structured emotional support system with engaging digital interactions and practical strategies to help them build resilience and navigate challenges.
🏫 For Schools
Data-driven insights and AI-powered tools that enable early identification of students in need, helping educators create a nurturing learning environment.
👨👩👧 For Parents:
