Idea projektu

The idea of project is to build affordable houses with facilities that help the environment to be less polluted and to provide people fresh water easily.

Popis projektu

The project is located in Nigeria, city of pulka. To fight in Nigeria's Borno state has caused years of suffering for people in this northeastern region and pushed many to leave their homes in search of safety . Large numbers of displaced people are living in the town of Pulka , where access to clean water is a major problem. The main problem of water is being solved by this enlargement includes public space as context for collecting water and ensuring the quality of life to people of pulka. So as Nigeria ranked as ninth globally among countries with the highest contributions to plastic pollution, over 88% of the plastic waste is generated in city is not recycled and it harms living organisms and pollutes water, so plastic bottles were used as when air pushes into bottle the gas contracts as it approaches rim of the bottle. so it results in a decrease in pressure in addition to a cement board and shutter wall for environmental solutions.

GRACE

I appreciate the group of Habiba Nabil for their thinking regarding those under privileged community of pulka. Water is a major and basic need for human being and such projects can produce new thoughts & innovation to solve the scarcity of water. I have 2 observations towards this project. 1. First of all the settlement pattern and that wall infilled with plastic bottle is quite good and appreciable idea which seems affordable too. 2. The vertical tower structure for collecting water is a well known thought like" Warka water " project. This system is used in many parts of Africa. Generally it demands to be installed at height altitude to collect water droplets from air and fog. But here, since the structure of tower is aliened with the roof of those houses/shelters in that case it might be difficult to collect adequate water from fog and air. Also it is important to locate the tower in a considerable place for better wind flow which will triggers its water collection. Therefore the study needs more understanding regarding wind flow and its direction. It will work nicely to collect rain water but those observation might be needed for collecting water from fog and dew. lastly i want to say that I m impressed within their effort and thinking. World needs more thinking like this to solve or make it easy for those people to survive in different condition.keep up the good works. Thank You.
