| SUSTAINABLE HOUSING |
 |
|
| Sustainable housing is sensitive to the needs of the people. It is culturally apt, environmentally suitable, safe and secure. Beyond this, SEEDS housing initiatives centre around a sense of ownership and dignity of the house owners. These initiatives are primarily the reconstruction of houses for people affected by floods, cyclones and earthquakes. Apart from recovery and rehabilitation work, SEEDS provides training to masons and unskilled construction workers on safe construction practices. It also continuously engages with emerging architects and engineers on indigenous housing design and technologies. Most of the training takes place through contact workshops, exposure visits, research studies and hands-on experience in the projects. |
