Careers across borders

Recent graduate Zaira Iudice found the architects without borders discussion page on facebook and was looking for entry points into architectural humanitarian work.

I introduced her to the Humanitarian Information Pack, an extensive working guide which I initially developed with a practitioner Elizabeth Babister when I was at RIBA Education, and which is now maintained by Article 25.

It outlines major players in the disaster recovery and international development field and provides many contacts and websites to enable those with interest and passion for emergency relief and development architecture to become more active.
