About  [Edit]

As a result of economic crisis, natural disaster and human conflict, many people are facing emergencies and crisis without adequate resources for long-range recovery. AWB is committed to helping communities develop self-directed sustainable recovery and reconstruction programs.



Architects Without Borders is dedicated to facilitating the means for collaborative technical assistance and support.



We support communities in developing visionary planning, leadership and self determination models upon which communities can define and achieve their own aspirations. "If you really listen to the victims of disasters, you can really make a difference."



Architects Without Borders believes that through sensitive, compassionate engagement and participatory consensus building programs, communities can build self-reliance and long range viability that is responsive to socio-economic, community and cultural identity.



We strive to create the means through which people can collaborate in building healthful, safe and livable built environments.



We promote multi-lateral, intercultural, participatory programs that foster good will and peace building through sustainable development programs.



Development and recovery programs are intended to promote improved quality of life and dignified living conditions for communities, today and for generations to come.



Architects Without Borders invites and encourages interdisciplinary and multi-cultural collaboration through working alongside local communities, public institutions, civil society organizations, trans-national organizations and other humanitarian relief organizations.



We promote interdisciplinary education, dialogue and awareness relating to sustainable development of the built environment and humanitarian relief that reflects social responsibility, environmental stewardship, and holistic wisdom.



Mindfulness and sensitivity to social equity and inclusion are inherently necessary for successful outcomes. Members and volunteers accept the responsibility of ethical professional practice that is inclusionary. We do not discriminate on the basis of national origin, creed, and cultural, ethnic or religious affiliation.
