About the project

Natural disasters can be devastating. In 2010 90,000 people were killed during anearthquake in Hati, in 2015 6,000 in Nepal and in 2016 16,000 in Ecuador. Each time ittook emergency services teams more then 24 hours to reach the trapped and injured. Medical teams were challenged by access to effected areas due to road blocks, brokeninfrastructure and vast geographic distance.

In Europe’s first-ever Makerspace for the humanitarian sector, practical experiences from our missions flow into the developement of new technical solutions and concepts. With the help of creative people from our extensive network and cooperations with universities we work on solutions to make our aid even more effective. Preferably low-cost, open source and diy.

Emergency Boxes

In emergency situations, materials are scarce. We believe that it is important to containour environmental impact in the areas we are working. Our emergency medical boxes are uniquely designed so they can be used and reused for a range of different things in field.These include shelter, storage and for safety.
