Information Printing Centers: Story Worldwide Responds To PSFK Future Of Health Report

Information Printing Centers

Establish simple set ups using the PrintStik portable printer and a Bluetooth enabled phone. Relevant information is sent to the phone from a central hub (operated by UNICEF) and this information is sent directly to the printer, enabling instant printing of notices and information to be posted in village centers. This would allow for up to date information to be distributed for a low cost. This information could include dosage information, locations of CHW’s, reminders about registering births, and more.

PSFK’s Future of Health Report shines a light on innovation occurring within the health and wellness space around the world. This document brings together both literal and lateral inspiration to provide a framework within which businesses can begin to contemplate the issues facing UNICEF and community health workers. These issues include limited resources, technological constraints, lack of health education, and limited access to timely and relevant health and wellness information.

In an effort to start this exciting conversation, PSFK challenged advertising and design agencies from around the world to react to the Future of Health report. They were tasked with developing concepts in the form of products, services or communications that addressed one or more of the needs set forth by UNICEF. The end result of this initial phase of ideation is more than 40 innovative concepts.

The following ideas are from Story Worldwide. The agency has responded with eight ideas; one concept, three products and four services. The full response is available for download on request here.
