SUMMARY:Ánako 3D Printing Design Award for Solidarity 2026
DESCRIPTION:In humanitarian emergencies\, the absence of small\, practical tools can have disproportionate consequences. A simple connector\, a stabilizing element\, a repair component or a basic medical accessory can determine safety\, functionality and dignity in fragile environments. Yet many of these objects remain unavailable\, not because they are complex\, but because they are not locally producible. \nIn this context\, WDO Member Ánako APS\, in collaboration with Prusa Research\, has launched the Ánako – 3D Printing Design Award for Solidarity 2026\, an international open call dedicated to the design of open-source\, 3D-printable solutions for humanitarian contexts. \nLearn more: https://www.anako.it/3daward%20-%20eng.html \nWDO Member: Ánako APS
