CONCEPT
The Backpack Radio Station is made out of water- and fireproof lightweight materials and powered by long-lasting batteries and mini solar panels. It contains a mini radio station as well as a mini database that makes the data accessible which is necessary to predict upcoming disasters such as tsunamis or volcano outbursts. The Backpack Radio Station can be a lifesaver for people living in remote communities on the over 17.000 islands of Indonesia, who have no access to information and communication through ICT. Where disasters occur, the mini radio stations can be quickly on site.
