[TEMPLATE] ZuWell Validation Interview

[Goal]

[ZuWell Intro]

ZuWell is an environmental well-being compass for pop-up cities and pop-up villages. It aims to solve/prevent the following problems:
Negative environmental influence on physical and mental well-being of pop-up village residents
Gaps in awareness of pop-up village organizers on how they might improve location/venue curation process and the overall experience of their citizens
Inefficient feedback mechanisms that the residents could use to voice environmental factors that influence their experience
