BRICK LAYING

         Living Hope Uganda trains and supports local builders (over 200 to date) in the construction of earth brick houses which are environmentally sound and economically feasible in Uganda.

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

The project addresses the need in Uganda for affordable, environmentally appropriate, sustainable, comfortable housing. Key beneficiaries are the rural families , local builders and apprentices working for the program, who become independent entrepreneurs, and the associated workers such as earth brick makers, transporters, laborers.
Scarce funds previously used for buying imported building materials stay in, and stimulate, the local economy.
