  • A man in Kano went to a foodseller. He had not eaten in 3 days. He begged the seller for food on credit.

    The foodseller said no because he already gave food to too many people on credit.

    The man sat down beside the foodseller’s shop as he had nowhere else to go.

    The foodseller told him he’s very sorry and he would like to help but too many people in the neighbourhood have collected food on credit and his business is sinking.

    The man sat there and said nothing.

    As time went on, other people came into the shop to buy foodstuff and went out- they noticed the man at the door sitting there sleeping. But nobody bothered.

    Until one man came later in the day and asked the foodseller: “who is the man sitting at your door?” “Why is he there?”

    Then the foodseller said “oh it’s a man who says he has not eaten for 3 days and he wants to collect food on credit but I could not give him because my business is struggling from all the credit I have already given out”.

    Then the other man said: “How much is the food he wants?”

    The food seller said “It’s a few cups of garri, rice and beans. Everything may be 2,000 naira”.

    The other man said “Alright pack everything he wants and more. I would pay for it. Let him go home to his family and eat”.

    The foodseller packed all the food and went outside to tell the man with joy that someone has paid for his food.

    He saw the man still sleeping.
    He tapped him to wake him up, he didn’t respond. Tapped him again, nothing.

    The man had died.
    He died sitting and waiting for help.

    This happened just few days ago in Badawa, Kano. Some people who live in that area know this story.

    The man was dead all along while people were coming in and out of the shop thinking he was sleeping.

    He died hopeless. He died helpless. He died a man who his country failed.

    If you know anyone in this period who is hungry around you and you can afford a little food or money to give him/her, please do.

    Many people are walking the streets with an empty stomach. Lend a hand if you can.

These prototypes, built by our team with a rotating cast of designers and developers, are tested with others for feedback and iteration, with the aim of public launch. (We’re currently testing our first prototype, an audio storytelling tool! Updates to come, and email us at hello@socialhealingproject.org if you’d like to learn more.) These prototypes are collectively iterated upon; they build off others’ wisdom and ideas surfaced in the healing jams, and involve a group of co-design participants to provide input and contribute meaningfully to how these are developed

  • He loved fiction. However, he never encouraged me to read what he used to read but always encouraged me to read textbooks.

    Sometimes, I used to keep his novel inside a textbook to enjoy the taste of a story. Fiction has the power to take you anywhere, and if the writer is good at storytelling, you feel like you are one of the characters.

    The second most important reason I love reading is my physical structure. Yes, you are right, my physique. I used to be skinny and tall at a very young age.

    As you may know, farming in underdeveloped countries is a physically demanding job. Therefore, in the early sage, I forced myself to study; to study more, you…

  • hello@socialhealingproject.orgHealing is tricky. Interdisciplinary collaboration is tricky. Participatory design is tricky! We’re working with people from a range of life experiences, backgrounds, and expertise, on a sensitive and vulnerable topic.
