60% to 80% of aid income

Nimble Manufacturing
Hyper-local manufacturing
3D printing (&more)
Key finding from Haiti:
We can make useful things in the field
Umbilical Cord Clamps
• Cost off the shelf in China $0.1• Cost off the shelf in Haiti $1
• Cost of printing & electricity for a clamp is $0.2• Cost of labour for printing is $0.4• Total cost is $0.6
40% cheaper without a supply chain when made in the field
(this cost will come down)
Innovation spaces in the fieldallow for close, rapid user
engagement
Innovation spaces in the fieldcan help to build responses
on local capacities
Learning / challenges from Haiti
• 3d printers aren’t enough: need richer remote manufacturing setup– And robust power
• Need training – and a design mindset to find new solutions
• Plastic recycling is possible but not good enough yet
• Quality & testing is important
More recently in Nepal
3D design is hard
Crisis mapping
3D Printing Trends May 2015
Humanitarian Makers
www.humanitarianmakers.net
Humanitarian Hackathons!
Makerspaces saving lives!
FabLabs in the field!
Peer to peer connections between maker spaces around the world
Learning / challenges from Nepal
• Customs argh• Local skills• Global design support works!
– It’s not always 3DP
Innovation spaces in the fieldEnabling open innovationMobilising innovators around the worldWorking in partnershipRespecting communities and collaborating
Next steps• More field trials & proof of concepts!• More manufacturing technologies
– Injection moulding– Metal parts– …
• Build global humanitarian maker community• Work up design catalogue – open hardware!• Power solutions• The Remote Manufacturing Unit
