Seven young people from the "Bio Rec" group presented, this Monday, during an activity organized by UNICEF, in Luanda, a prosthesis made with plastic bottles.
By 2025, the young inventors aim to produce 30 orthopedic prostheses.
At the event, which serves to celebrate International Youth Day, the orthopedists, engineers and product designers, aged between 18 and 22, explained that the initiative came about to help a school friend who lost his lower limbs.
In just six months, the young people have already won two awards, they came first in the Angotic Innovation Area and won the award for Best Social Impact Project from the National Bank of Angola.
According to a note from the Provincial Government of Luanda, consulted by JA Online, the group is working on a pilot project that will benefit ten people, of which one is missing to complete the picture.
