Hi @shabirhussain I work for Motivation, an NGO specialising in appropriate wheelchairs and wheelchair provision, and I was really interested to hear about your project! It is great to hear that you will be linking with government agencies. Motivation has worked with several wheelchair services in the Peshawar region to deliver training in different types of World Health Organization training in appropriate wheelchair provision. Some of these institutions include, Akbar Kare Institute, Paraplegic Centre, Peshawar, and PIPOS Rehabilitation Service, Peshawar. I wonder if it might be useful to link up with them? Do let me know if I can provide more details and good luck!
@OpenIDEO Please find in the attachments our focus group feedback and initial response to this feedback! As you can see this group were not only able to comment on the overall concept, but on a number of other important considerations. For example, energy used to propel the product, and durability of the product. As with all our design concepts this initial feedback is a crucial part in the design and product development phase.
