EcoDome – Girls Vocational School and Community Center

Amidst post-earthquake reconstruction in Azad Kashmir in 2007, we built an ecodome – an earthquake-resistant, low-cost and environmentally low-impact building. This striking structure serves as a community center and vocational school for girls and underprivileged women.

Partners.  This project was generously supported by grant funding from Operation USA (www.opusa.org ), by the California Institute of Earth Art and Architecture ( www.calearth.org ) that provides training and architectural plans, and private donors and individuals from the community who tirelessly donated their time and assistance.
