設計理念
concept
根據聯合國所統計的資料顯示，全世界在每年都有數以百萬計的兒童死亡，尤其是五歲以下兒童死亡的總數，有整整一半是發生在撒哈拉以南的非洲。在撒哈拉以南的非洲，每 13 個兒童中就有 1 個在 5 歲前死亡，原因包括了有：出生並發症、肺炎、腹瀉、新生兒敗血症和瘧疾。這項產品將重點放在如何利用簡單物品進行基礎教育，來間接減少因吃錯未熟水果而死於腹瀉的兒童數量。
According to the un stats,millions of child deaths occur worldwide each year, and half of all deaths of children under the age of five occur in sub-Saharan Africa. In sub-Saharan Africa, 1 out of 13 children die before the age of five due to causes such as; birth complications, pneumonia, diarrhea, neonatal sepsis and malaria. This product will focus on ameliorating the problem of diarrhea, and the use of educational methods aimed at reducing the number of children who die from diarrhea due to eating the wrong fruit.
