Scientific Animations Without Borders (SAWBO)

Scientific Animations Without Borders (SAWBO) is an award winning program, based at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, focused on ICT4D.[1] SAWBO creates two- and three-dimensional animations explaining concepts that can be used to improve agricultural production[2], reduce postharvest losses, prevent and treat diseases. Specific video topics include, for example, malaria prevention[3], use of bednets to prevent vector borne diseases (specifically malaria)[4], cholera prevention[5], dengue prevention[6], yellow fever prevention, West Nile virus prevention[7], Chagas disease prevention[8], use of biocontrol agents in pest management[9], treatment of cassava flour to prevent konzo[10], tuberculosis prevention and treatment[11], how to make an oral rehydration solution[12], handwashing[13], use of neem seed extracts as an alternative to synthetic pesticides[14], proper processing of shea seeds and shea butter[15], hermetic storage of seeds to prevent insect attack, solar treating of cowpeas to prevent insect attack[16], proper transportation and storage of grain to prevent postharvest losses[17][18][19][20], and micro-finance, as well as videos useful for hospital systems both in the developing and developed world[21]. Animations are translated into numerous languages[22] and are made freely available to any group interested in deploying these videos for educational purposes only. SAWBO is focused on delivering critical knowledge to low literate learners in their own languages using cell-phone ready animations which can be shared between video- and Bluetooth(R)- capable cell phones. SAWBO also has a longstanding interest in developing videos to share indigenous knowledge that has been verified in the scientific literature.[23] SAWBO partners with local NGOs, government organizations, and other academic institutions to create and deploy these videos in the field.[24] SAWBO videos can be viewed and downloaded from one of several online SAWBO[25] websites, YouTube[26], or from the Sustainable Development Virtual Knowledge Interface (SusDeViKI)[27], an online journal for materials appropriate for educational programs focused on low literate learners.[28]

Origin of SAWBO

SAWBO was initiated in 2010 on the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign campus and released in 2011. An animated video, created by the SAWBO group, explains the origins of the program. The video is available in English and Spanish.
