World Habitat Awards 2008/09. Low Cost and Sustainable Construction in the Sahel


The World Habitat Awards were established in 1985 by the Building and Social Housing Foundation as part of its contribution to the United Nations International Year of Shelter for the Homeless.


We featured the two 2009 winners last October and November as part of a special InFocus series. This month we feature one of the finalists - Earth Roofs for the Sahel, with others appearing in recent and coming months. Collectively the series will provide a wide picture of the varied successful schemes.

Please visit our InFocus section - not only to follow the World Habitat monthly features - we have also published the first two parts of four special features that showcase the work of Tim Wainwright, tracing his interviews with 22 housing association residents from across the UK. Tim's work exhibits the contribution of public sector housing over the past 40 years.
