~ Community Resilience ~ Too many communities are vulnerable to the effects of disasters due to inadequate safety measures in the built environment and a lack of technical understanding. Weve learned through our work that many tragedies are preventable. We’re providing the training, technical expertise, and the networks necessary for local architects to provide the leadership necessary to strengthen their communities. We also advocate for humanitarian design through speaking engagements and events, to continue to lead the conversation in humanitarian architecture and sustainable development Select Programs: Biloxi Model Homes Football for Hope Haiti Rebuilding Center Hurricane Sandy Reconstruction National Resilience Program Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami Rebuilding architectureforhumanity.org/portfolio#resilience
