WASH MALAWI SANITARY PROGRAM

POSTER AND PICTOGRAMS

A couple of years ago, my mother visited Malawi with Red Cross to see the charity work being done in the country. In traditional African manner, a group of dancers teach the inhabitants of primitive areas the five important occasions for washing your hands and the importance of hygiene in general. This is done through dance, singing and drum play.
I have created pictograms that also communicate these five occasions. The pictograms must be understandable for a person from an East-African culture and be easily drawn with chalk or coal on toilets or hand-washing-stations for instance.
