DIY Tinkering Challenge
It is our pleasure to announce the winner of the inaugural DIY Tinkering Challenge. Congratulations to Mariama Sangarie for her winning video entry Solar Backpack!
The Solar Backpack is a simple solution to a persistent problem: lack of access to electricity in Sierra Leone. We have seen many DIY solar generator concepts before, but Mariama Sangarie’s stands out for it’s user friendly design and its ingenuity in finding a new use for a kid’s backpack.
