"Money is not
the key that opens the gates of the market but the bolt that bars them"
Gesell, Silvio The
Natural Economic Order
Revised English
edition, Peter Owen,
“Poverty is created scarcity”
Wahu Kaara, point 8 of the Global Call to Action Against Poverty, 58th
annual NGO Conference, United Nations,
Most houses in the project
area are made of wood, grass, mud (thatched houses) bricks, blocks, stones and
iron sheets. The size of the houses depends on the size of the family and
income of the person. Some houses are big and others are small. Locally
available building materials include bricks, blocks, wood, mud, grass, sand,
and leaves. The quality of the house depends on the type of material used and
architectural techniques applied. Seasonal heating is not required here.
The major problem in both
houses and communities is formed by smoke hazards from cooking activities, and
from stagnant waters in puddles and ponds.
The project introduces
efficient cooking stoves to eliminate smoke from homes. Stagnant waters will be
eliminated by local labour operating under the local money systems set up.
