Brief Explanation

First aid is one of the most simple and basic knowledge tools that can truly save a life. While people are spending most of their time online, discovering and learning about almost everything, medical knowledge is in comparison, not that popular. And when facing such situation where time is crucial, most people tend to stand still and do nothing or just wait for someone who might know better. Have we become robots? Or Are we still humans? In the digital world, there is only one way to find out! Therefore, we’ve turned the regular un-skip-able captchas into an educational tool through embedding first aid information into our daily online experiences; replacing gibberish with value. Through our special microsite, website owners can download these captchas in both Arabic and English, either to replace the regular one, or as a temporary homepage verification popup. So, every online user turns into a potential life saver. The initiative took over high traffic websites for a full day, where visitors were required to key in the first aid tip they see on the screen. Later on, the captcha can be used by organizations and corporations and website owners by implementing it as an additional security measure for the long term, therefore, more lives are possibly saved.
