Hi everybody I,m working in a SCI rehab institutes Bangladesh. For awareness purpose we need to devolope some injury prevention mostly fall tree or fall from height poster. Can you give some idea or share some existing poster if any one have.
Hi kazi, where would these posters be posted? Around the city for the public to see and be aware of or is it something that'll be shared within the rehab institute?

Hi Kazi, not sure what your looking for, could you be more specific. I know where I live falling from hunting tree stands are big, ladders, falling off roofs. I'm guessing there are many differences from here to there.
Thanks for your response. Actually This poster will be posted in community. Now our target population are farmer related with mango and jackfruit cultivation. In this season lots of people injured during collection of fruits from tree. So we want to aware them and share some safe way like using harness during fruits collection.

Oh ok that makes sense. I'd say put something eye catching like a picture of someone in a wheelchair. Then you could go on to say in text "This could be you if you don't use a safety harness..." or something like that.
That will be great. Do you have any picture of harness that can be use in tree climbing?
Here's a good video on how to safely climb a tree with a rope. I feel like it'd be hard convincing people go through the effort of getting a harness and using it when they're so used to just climbing the tree. Maybe if you put a picture of someone in a wheelchair who had a similar injury, they'll see that and realize how risky it is. You can put your contact info somewhere on the page so that they can contact you to find out about safe climbing practices or something like that.

This must be a tough one Kazi. Harder than coming up with the harness, is going to be getting the farmers to wear them. To be safe it's all about having the equipment and knowledge to use it. Simple ropes would make it safer, two people working a tree, the problem would be making it time/ cost effective.
