A Design Challenge in Times of COVID-19, Team 6, Classyear 2023, ATLAS, UCT

curve. In 19 over 28 million people have been affected

and this is that to more than one million deaths.

Do you do this virus and expected 1.6 billion jobs

worldwide will be lost.

We believe the challenge is to design a sustainable solution

to prevent the transmission of curve in 19.

We want to research how we get sustainably enhanced existing

prevention devices like personal protective equipment.

Relevant aspect is the need to improve sustainability.

We define us as ecological, social and economic fairness on

a local and global skill.

We will communicate this with lots officials because this has

the biggest impact and put numbers in perspective.

So a sustainable solution is needed because plastic waste produced

during curve in 19 will cost us $40 million a

year because of PP increased with 1064% and only half

of the hospitals in poor countries report Having faced months

on, this is only a tip of the iceberg.

You see, reducing the impact of covert 19 is important

for everyone for both you and me.

So the stakeholders are mainly in folks.

For example, hospital employees, environmental workers, waste disposal agencies and

political bodies like the EU and help ministries from everywhere.

Initiatives of popping up, trying to make B B better

and we're sustainable.

Examples of this are treaty printing, 100% recyclable mosque, decontamination

of BP with UV light, reusable hand sanitizer bottles and

so on and so forth.

We will learn from this current initiatives so we can

take our challenge.

We will look at both soft and hard impacts.

The soft impacts are things like the norms and values

of a society.

ID impact are more to functional space, like to environments.

By doing this, we make sure we designed something that

is also sustainable in the context off its use.

Thank you for listening.
