Civilian Protection & Humanitarian Corridors

The Group planned and executed Operation Firescape, the establishment of a protected humanitarian corridor through the un-administered boundary areas during the outbreak of the North-South Sudanese war of secession. Evacuated 60,000 civilians along a 44-kilometer route during hostilities; coordinated airborne food drops with UNDSS/ WFP; and provided security risk operations.

The Design

The Open Source Face Shield is a low cost, medical face shield designed to be quickly made using almost any flat material fabrication equipment (laser cutters, rule dies, drag knife, CNC punch, etc.), or even scissors and an office hole punch from any clear flexible material.  It requires no hardware or 3D printed parts, just two pieces of flexible clear plastic and an elastic band.
