Jury evaluation: At the other end of the scale the judges loved this innovative idea to generate local light for local communities. The ‘lighting tool' uses an LED module with bicycle parts, water pipes and a telephone cable to create off-grid lighting. The system has now brought communities together at night in addition to the day. Ingenious.
