The SHS Project - Simple Housing Solution consists of a proposal of methodology for (re)construction of houses and other small buildings, in a collaborative construction effort system, seeking to optimize available resources and contribute to the organization of the chaos installed during the disaster, in post-conflict situations or in the case of relocation of populations from risk areas.
What is the Project::
