NuVu Students who participated in the Easing Cerebral Palsy studio from last Winter's Health Term are in Monterrey, Mexico this week. In Easing Cerebral Palsy students designed products to ease the challenges faced by children, and the families of children, with Cerebral Palsy. Javier Leal, cofounder of Mas Libertad Menos Barreras, has facilitated an amazing experience for NuVu students: we are both field testing the products on location at Instituto Nuevo Amanecer, and reworking the projects at Monterrey Tec with the help of industrial design students. We have six terrific industrial design students volunteering with us this week, and access to their fully-outfitted shop. The first day in Monterrey was a day packed of activities and some fun time. The highlight of the day was at Instituto Nuevo Amanecer where one child tried out the Skills Vest (a skill vest designed to improve motor functions in kids with CP), and really loved it. The Wheelchair, Fashionable Lift Vest and Arte Para Todos were also very well received. After Nuevo Amanecer, students visited some mountains, brainstormed with the industrial design students, went to dinner at the planetarium and used Sam Bortman's selfie stick to capture a few group selfies.
