Project Overview
Project Description
This project will support Splash Social Enterprises (SSE) in developing technical documentation and materials for its handwashing and drinking water stations, which can be used in the field and for marketing purposes. SSE wants to ensure that its product information is easy to understand and accessible for those from non-technical backgrounds and with different language abilities. This project will involve extracting key information from existing drawings and gaining an understanding of the products, in order to develop materials including product manuals, assembly models, animations and other visuals.
Primary responsibilities include:
- Creating ‘how-to’ slide decks and videos with animations
- Producing assembly drawings and models
- Producing technical manuals
Impact
SSE designs, manufactures, and distributes durable and affordable handwashing stations and drinking water stations that are used in schools and healthcare facilities to improve the health and well being outcomes for children. This project will allow for better understanding of the products both by users and potential customers.
