设计更好的科技，理解周围的环境

Imported medical equipment often gathers dust in Africa because it cannot survive local heat, humidity, or unreliable electricity. Inventors who listen closely, like students who adapted a fetal heart monitor to work with smartphones or engineers who built solar-powered hearing aids, find real solutions. Success comes from engaging directly with communities and reshaping problems around their realities, rather than forcing technology to fit. Genuine impact begins with empathy and immersion, not assumptions.
