Hello everybody!
We would like to introduce ourselves and our project to you.
We are four Industrial Design Engineering students, from the Delft University of Technology. Currently we are working on a project for Kamworks, a young solar company located in Cambodia. We are developing an affordable, quality lighting solution for the rural Cambodian population.
In Cambodia about 85% of the 15 million citizens of the country have no access to reliable electrical supply yet. They mainly use kerosene lamps, which involves high fuel costs, poor light quality and low safety, contributing at the same time to environmental pollution. The absence of reliable electricity sources forms a real barrier for the development of the rural population.
Therefore, we are aiming to to develop a locally producible, affordable and durable lamp for the Cambodian market. To make this happen, we are going to stay in Cambodia for 2,5 months. During this period we want to understand the Cambodian context and design a lighting solution tailored to the needs and wants of the user.
In this challenge we would like to invite you to join in; with your comments, ideas and creativity from this blog...With your support we are sure that the outcome of our project will be more than positive.
Regards,
Lumen
