Philippines’ bottle school project

Posted on | December 30, 2010 |

bottle school

Behind the project is MyShelter Foundation. A non-stock, non-profit org that aims to create a system of sustainability and reliability through its capability-building and employment generating projects. For this Bamboo School project,

After constructing earthen and bamboo schools, Diaz continues to seek eco-friendly means of building more schools by adopting open technology with the use of PET bottles as well as silica, ash and lime (these are the building blocks of adobe churches constructed by Spanish architects and engineers). With the proven strength and staying power of bricks, Diaz said, we have to take up this technology again. (from here)

Other previous projects of Myshelter Foundation are the “Earthen School” and the “Bamboo School”. To find out more info and how we can all help (they have many fund raising events in the course of the year), click here.
