New Building Project Workshop Video

Jitegemee has partnered with the Washington, D.C., chapter of Architecture for Humanity (AfH) to design our new center. AfH is a group of volunteer designers that promotes design solutions to global, social and humanitarian problems.

In August 2009, Rayya Newman and Mark Palmer, two volunteer architects, visited Kenya with Jitegemee board members to begin the design process. They conducted a five-day workshop introducing our teachers, parents and students to environmentally sustainable designs, such as roofs that collect rainwater, latrines that compost waste, and classrooms that stay cool due to natural ventilation.

Below is a YouTube video with clips from the workshop.
