MANAGING TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER MODEL FOR THE REHABILITATION SUPPORT IN MINEFIELD CASUALTIES

This paper describes the use of rapid prototyping technology for the production of lower limb prostheses and a model of modern technology transfer to Bosnia and Herzegovina - BiH. This country was identified as one of 24 States Parties with significant numbers of mine survivors, and with “the greatest responsibility to act, but also the greatest needs and expectations for assistance” in providing adequate assistance for the care, rehabilitation and reintegration of survivors.
