Vilajvilaj The project is being developed in Quebec and in Haiti. U n first prototype container home has been developed in Boisbriand by Nomad Construction firm (with the participation of the architect Ron Rayside). A team of twenty people should leave for Haiti in November to begin building the first village / container. The idea
is to go there to give an initial boost and train workers so that Haitians can become self-sufficient in building their homes and in the establishment of cooperative projects associated. In such projects, each will be involved in the organization by its commitment to participate in the maintenance and sustainability, not only of his own house, but the whole village. This commitment will be essential as it comes to building, from each village, an autonomous and self sufficient.
Haitian workers will be trained, hired and paid. The items included in construction will be made locally wherever possible. The houses will be equipped for more autonomy, solar collectors and tanks that can collect rainwater.
also volunteers at the sale of bracelets to OSM concert Sept. 2 (outdoor concert at Place des Arts), a fundraising activity for the project Vilajvilaj.
