We learned this week last (August 12, 2010) Project sponsored by Luck Mervil to construct, Haiti, homes from recycled container.
The idea of building houses from container is not new. An exploration on the Web, we uncovered several types of construction already completed around the world. This ranges from the animal shelter at the residence of students through the cottage, the collapsible canteen and emergency care unit.
Many benefits are associated with the use of container, but what interests us here is the idea of its use in a humanitarian context or, better yet, with intent to sustainable development. The project Vilajvilaj involves implanting villages in Haiti and around the world to help the poorest people.
container houses allow people displaced by disasters to quickly relocated to near their original places of residence. Moreover, the participation of people in the community stages of implementation would offer a continuation and strengthening of social ties.
The general idea of the project is to work together to rebuild a healthy environment and a supportive community.
