For the first time, Action Aid plans to participate with a communication project at the Milan Design Week, in order to raise awareness on the Millennials and G-Zen targets, bringing attention about its commitment on social issues like the right and access to water.
Students envisioned an installation at Fondazione Prada, aimed at engaging visitors in a game to gain water, in order to identify themselves in the people who are forced daily to get water with a great effort. The group designed a path inside Fondazione Prada building in Milan, where visitors could get a water bottle and find a luxury bespoke manual water pump. The route inside the building culminate with a video installation, showing Action Aid project.
