BRIEF HISTORY OF BOOM POW WOW

The original concept and idea of BOOM POW WOW was improvised and undertaken in 2017 as a reference from Medical Makers a social entrepreneurship philanthropy firm and social NGOs based in Toronto, Canada which associated with various stakeholders and partners ecosystem such as a Harvard Business Social Initiative, United Nations Sustainable Development Goals of 2030 under guidelines of Founder of Medical Makers - Julielynn Wong, MD, MPH, FACPM - Public Health, Occupational, Aerospace & Preventive Medicine Physician | Innovator | Health Communications Specialist.

The main challenge was about "How can we empower children with disabilities so that they can have clear and customized representation in the toys they play with, in a sustainable manner?"

​

BoomPowWOW Box is a system to adapt card and board games to improve children’s unseen super-powers. Moreover, it is an open-source toolkit to empower people to develop the project into extensions and new applications. It does not require high-technology tools to be developed.
