The World's First Soap Bus Ticket
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Integrated & Innovative Media / Innovative Media / 2016
The Asiri Hospital Group, wanted a way to decrease frequency of illnesses by bringing hygiene to the forefront. In Sri Lanka everyone rides the bus; often cramped and overcrowded it becomes the ideal environment for germs to spread. Washing hands can eliminate the potential health risk, however most public washrooms do not have soap. So we developed the world’s first ‘Soap Bus Ticket’. Now, on busses passengers did not just receive a piece of paper they got a ticket that acts as a disinfectant when used with water. Promoting a healthier nation, and good daily habit.
