Last week, the BRAC team in Haiti partnered with Architecture for Humanity to conduct a 2-day participatory workshop on safer-building design and construction. The workshop included instruction spanning several areas of construction such as proper structure layout and dimensions, composition of concrete bricks and mortar, site cleanliness and safety, and steel reinforcements.
As those in Haiti begin to rebuild their shelters, both organizations - BRAC and Architecture for Humanity - recognized the importance of ensuring safe buildings this time around in attempt to prevent another tragedy in the future.
Below are pictures from the first day of the event:
