Objectives
The aim of the TCLA+ project is to contribute to the production of economical, resilient and eco-responsible housing in Haiti, by promoting the TCLA approach: a global approach designed to ensure that all construction projects are adapted to the local context and to the needs expressed by the inhabitants, by drawing on local constructive intelligence (knowledge and know-how) and locally available resources to provide accessible and sustainable rehousing solutions for the population.
Outside the emergency post-disaster period, the TCLA sector needs to be supported and structured, with a view to preparing for disaster, building the resilience of Haitian populations and, above all, contributing to the production of economical and eco-responsible housing, particularly for the most vulnerable populations. To enable the development of the TCLA approach in Haiti, the TCLA+ project proposes to strengthen all the links in the TCLA construction chain: material producers and retailers, craftsmen, architects/engineers, CSOs and national or international NGOs carrying out TCLA construction projects, public or private customers and local authorities.
The TCLA+ project, which responded to a call for projects from the URBAYITI program, focuses in particular on the most vulnerable populations and communities in the urban areas of Port-au-Prince and Les Cayes.
