We want materials for kids to teach them about health, their bodies, what it means to get sick
Material that parents can get through their kids when kids take them home
- If they kids can learn it, they can teach their families
Groups to include
- UNICEF
  - Materials for kids, like pictures
- WHO
  - Prevention kits for epidemics (e.g. cholera)
- World Food Programme
  - Agriculture
  - Water testing manuals -- made for field workers but simple enough for amateurs
- PIH
