Description

The Syrian civil war is countinuing even today. Therefore, there are around 200 milion Syrian refugees and 60% of them are children. In particular, most children who are at the Zaatarl refugee camp cannot receive formal education and there is not even a proper playing facility for them. Due to this, I designed self-generated lighting maracas for the education of the children of Syrian refugees. This can help children to develop sentiments and also helps to prevent nightime crimes within the refugee camp by acting as a lighting throughout dark evenings.
