Author: Benedict Clouette & Marlisa WiseThe book highlights the architectural consequences of humanitarian actions based on three case studies - in Port-au-Prince, the West Bank, a nd Nairobi. The authors analyse 12 projects in terms of typology and construction and establish a differentiated position in the discourse on short-term housing for emergency situations. They investigate the far-reaching effects of such architectural aid and supply architects, town planners, and NGOs with useful advice for future planning.ISBN 9783035610215.
