| Description: | ABOUT LISHA WATOTO No More Child Hunger In Kenya Slum-dwellers are among the Kenyans worst hit by high food prices, yet they receive far less humanitarian attention than other demographic groups. With soaring prices of fuel and food hitting the roof, hunger beckons for an estimated 2.4 million people in Nairobi alone. The average income is about 150Ksh ($1.80) per day if a mother is able to wash clothes, however this is not always reliable. The coping strategies are to skip meals or have a late breakfast instead of breakfast/lunch etc.Malnourished children grow up with worse health and lower educational achievement. Malnutrition, in the form of iodine deficiency, is "the most common preventable cause of mental impairment worldwide. Even moderate iodine deficiency, especially in pregnant women and infants, lowers intelligence by 10 to 15 I.Q. points, shaving incalculable potential off a nation’s development. For humans, "critical period varies from the final third of gestation to the first 2 years of life What is clear is the need for a permanent solutions and the need to address capacity building for the urban poor. Lisha Watoto program is a proposed solution. This will be done by affected communities with tools to combat malnutrition among young children, especially those under the age of 5, as well as develop sustainable access to affordable food for every family and individual. It is proposed that the initial efforts will lead to the formation of a Food Co-op that would avail food to members at wholesale prices What is clear is the need for a permanent solutions and the need to address capacity building for the urban poor. |
| Design Goals: | A logo for Child Hunger eradication campaign. The logo should depict a child getting some kind of help. The help in this case is food. But this need not be literal—i.e. it's not just a question of putting child, food pics etc. Illustrations can convey the message. Helping –is a concept that should be depicted graphically. Color: green and gold |
| Design No-Gos: | photos, depictions of children dying or naked or anything disgusting. |

this contest is poor feedback.
Thanks
Fahad
#15. Good attempt. To evoke emotions, the focus should be on the child's face--not the whole body. So what's stopping your design from coming to life is because the child's face is blank-so its just like a toy.
#20 Nice concept. The child can be in a more sympathetic state.
#22 Nice concept of using the helping hand. Is there a way of having a more sympathetic child?
#24 Excellent use of hands. Is there a way of having a child sketch being on the receiving end. The drawing doesn't have to be whole body just face --up torso so arms can stretch.
#25 Good approach using the the palm--if we can have a more sympathetic child.
#27 Very unique approach-- if we can have a more sympathetic baby child.
#31 A very good attempt--I like the way the palms can also look like leaves.Now if we can have just one baby child as per discussion above.
#32, you have done a great job--if only you can also incorporate a sketch of a baby.
#2-9, I am trying to understand the great meaning behind the drawings. They are interesting though.
The rest, I will comment later.
To get the type of age we are focusing on, I finally tried using "toddler", "baby" and finally got the type of age we are interested in. http://www.google.ca/search?q=child+illustration&hl=en&safe=off&prmd=imvns&source=lnms&tbm=isch&ei=jz1IT7jiCYi70QHzuvW5Dg&sa=X&oi=mode_link&ct=mode&cd=2&sqi=2&ved=0CA8Q_AUoAQ&biw=1252&bih=568#hl=en&safe=off&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=baby+sketch&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=d3c570c8f20cfb5a&biw=1252&bih=568.
A sympathetic baby can be in many poses.
1. Looking directly
2. Sucking thumb
3. Sleeping
4. with clasped hands
5. with an empty cup
6. Looking desolate
7. Lying listless not sleeping
8. disgruntled
Finally, the hair--should be that a black child.
please see attachment.

anyway,is the contest still goes on?
Let say, for another sample, in the other contest you are the first person who use the "Tree Silhouette" to convey the message for the name of the company, but the next designers use the same idea you have created, how do you feel ? And then the designer who steal your idea chosen as the winner, how do you feel? I'm sure that you must be think that the winner steal your idea, right? Right. Just feel the same way as i think. I saw your profile just now, and i praise you for your designs are good. I believe you can create another idea the best that you can do. With humble heart, i apologies for what i have to say. Thank you, friend. And i say this also for gaviasa #27 .
