We congratulate the OxReach project team – finalists in the ‘Project of the Year’ award category of the PraxisUnico Impact Awards. The Impact Awards celebrate”…the achievements of KEC [Knowledge Exchange and Commercialisation] professionals and our volunteer community in delivering and developing best practice across the sector”. The team was recognised for the work with LIFE [Life-saving Instruction for Emergencies] – a smartphone based serious game training healthcare workers in Africa. The game could be created thanks to funding generated by the team using the OxReach crowdfunding platform, created as an IT Innovation Challenges project.

For more information about the OxReach project and their crowdfunding work, please read the OxReach – crowdfunding for University projects blog post.
