Asem Hasna lost his leg in Syria – now he’s 3D-printing a second chance for fellow amputees

The story of Refugee Open Ware, and one wounded refugee’s efforts to help his countrymen back on their feet.


For most people, the first time they use a 3D printer is to create a simple object – a fridge magnet or a bookmark. Asem Hasna, then a 20-year-old Syrian refugee in Jordan, began with a prosthetic hand for a woman who lost hers in Syria’s civil war.

Hasna had met the woman in 2014 in Zaatari, the refugee camp 65 kilometers north-east of Amman, the capital of Jordan. The young woman, who has requested anonymity, lost her right hand during an attack and was struggling to care for her two daughters. Hasna, now 23, had just joined Refugee Open Ware (ROW), an Amman-based organisation that taught refugees how to 3D-print affordable artificial limbs for amputees.
