Humanitarian Kits

Early Development

Prosthetics in a Box

The Menderi is exploring adaptable prosthetic and assistive device kits that could be shipped compactly, assembled locally, and repaired with accessible parts in war-torn regions.

Humanitarian Kits

What We Are Studying

Early work will identify local prosthetic and assistive technology needs, available fabrication capacity, suppliers, costs, wait times, access barriers, and delivery bottlenecks. These findings will guide the feasibility of modular, adjustable kits and supporting build instructions.
