The Humanium Metal Initiative
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Creativity for Good / Product Design / 2017
There are hundreds of millions of illegal firearms in the world. Every minute someone is shot. Armed violence is a global epidemic that hits developing countries especially hard.
Humanium Metal is a new commodity, recycled from weapons destruction programs and made available for commercial production.
By using Humanium in their production, brands, artists and designers can help the world become a more peaceful place. Because with every Humanium product sold, new funds are generated to help support the victims, expand weapons destruction programs and rebuild conflict-torn societies.
