IJEOMA CHIEMELA

Program Designer, Intervention Designer, and Human-First Technologist in Global

Hire me

I help nonprofits, founders, and social impact teams build programs and systems that actually work — and keep working after the funding ends.

Over the past 10+ years, I’ve worked in 1,000+ communities, across Public Health, WASH, education, Nutrition, climate, and governance, helping over 3,000 grassroots organizations move from activity-based busywork to outcome-driven systems. I’ve worked and partnered with local NGOs, CBOs, CSOs, faith-based organizations (FBOs), CSR arms, advocacy coalitions, international development and humanitarian organizations, think tanks, and impact-driven initiatives-designing and building programs and systems that deliver real results.

Right now, I focus on how AI + Web3 + Human-Centered Design can radically transform how we design interventions that last — without losing the human soul behind them.

- What I Do

I specialize in:

  • Social Behavior Change (SBC)
  • Human-Centered Design (HCD)
  • Community Mobilization & Engagement
  • Strategic Communication & RCCE
  • Organizational Capacity Strengthening
  • Stakeholder Engagement
  • Documentation & Impact Reporting
  • UX + Behavioral Economics for Social Impact
  • AI for Development | Blockchain for Good

👩🏽‍💼 My Work❤️

I lead VitalNutrient, where we fight malnutrition using HCD, behavioral science, and emerging tech — blending AI and blockchain to improve transparency, accountability, and incentives in humanitarian work.

I also run SiX (Social impact eXperience) — a learning and collaboration hub for NGO founders, implementers, and change professionals. It’s where community meets practice, and where systems thinking meets execution.

Why I Do It⚡️

Because most programs fail not for lack of money, but for lack of design.
Because people deserve systems that serve them — long after the donor leaves.
Because smart tech without empathy is dangerous. And empathy without structure is ineffective.
I bring both.
