Umuganda Attendance & Fines Tracking System (UATS)

📍 Background

In Rwanda, Umuganda—a monthly community service day—is a vital civic tradition. However,

Current attendance tracking is paper-based and inefficient. There’s also no reliable system to

enforce fines for non-attendance, resulting in lost accountability.

🧩 Your Challenge

You are tasked with building a full-stack system that enables:

● Citizens to view their Umuganda participation and any fines

● Local leaders to create and manage attendance for monthly sessions

● Sector officials to track participation trends and manage fines

The platform must be deployed live, demonstrating core system features.

✅ Minimum Requirements

🎫 1. Attendance Recording

👥 2. Citizen Dashboard

💸 3. Fines Tracking

📊 4. Admin Panel (Sector-level)

✨ Bonus Features (Optional)

● Mobile Money payment integration (MTN MoMo / Airtel Money)

● Mobile-first or offline-capable frontend

● Implementing Artificial Intelligence(AI) features

● Gamified elements (e.g., badges for consistent participation)
