Team Emotional Damage • Monash University

Who are we and what is R.I.P.E.H?

Team Emotional Damage is a dedicated team of six students from Monash University, united by a shared commitment to addressing the growing challenge of air quality in Malaysia by creating R.I.P.E.H.

R.I.P.E.H bridges the gap between complex environmental data and actionable health insights. By focusing specifically on the impact of air pollution on the elderly, we aim to provide a proactive alert system that empowers older adults and their caregivers to make informed, life‑saving decisions.

We believe technology should serve as a guardian for the vulnerable. Through research and development, we strive to foster a safer, more transparent living environment for Malaysia’s aging population.
