In a world of continuous population growth, slums growth is a high risk of world “pollution”
SLUMS INVASION solution: TOWARD NEW ORIGINS (refurbishment, reframe through natural materials as solutions for a better future)
Adaptation to new circumstances: OLESJA LAMI_ALBANIA
DISASTER SITED: SLUMS INVASION In a world of continuous population growth, slums growth is a high risk of world “pollution”
Actual problem: INVADING LAND (destroying landscape)_ GARBAGE POLLUTING NATURAL
RESOURCES (water/ soil) _ EPIDEMIC SOURCES (over pollution makes the environment
vulnerable toward new epidemic emerge)
DISASTER SCENARIO: How may it occur?
Because is impossible to prevent the growth the solution is rehabilitation of actual
situation and giving examples of future suitable development
The solution is a ADAPTATION TO NEW CIRCUMSTANCES, such a way
creating NEW ORIGINS for future developments
3 basic IMPLEMENTATIONS:
CLEANING PROGRAMS
COMMUNITY TALKS
HOUSING REFURBISHMENT
SOLUTION...
PLAN...
PROGRAM:
ORGANIZE CLEANING POGRAMS, first layer: government cleaning programs_ second
layer community teachings on dividing garbage in proper cans. Final result would be
inclusion of Slum’s garbage in the city-cleaning network
ORGANIZE COMMUNITY TALKS to present ways of building with natural materials as
(mud, straw, wood etc.), such a way to respect land and vegetation
ORGANIZE HOUSING REFURBISHMENT through volunteers, meanwhile teaching the
slum’s inhabitants simple construction techniques of mud, straw, wood, and ways to
utilize rain water and vegetation.
Growing consciousness about simple interventions on
improving life conditions, diminish pollution,
improving landscape
Interventions have been made inside slums, to improve the quality of public space
(by painting walls), or even implementing new functions (like sport facilities) to bring
social development.
ECO- COMMUNITIES CLEANER ENVIRONMENT
Reframe of natural resource (self refurbishment after removal of garbage),
back to the origins
Improve the quality of life inside slums, lower pollution level, safer
environment, diminish epidemic risk
People tend to copy one another, from simpler to much complicated solutions, just like the
first shack was build and ended on creating an entire slum, the same way can be spread new
resolutions.
The answer is there, sometimes we need only someone to begin building up a better future.
