Architecture as a tool in empowering marginalized communities.
Fimmers, Guy-Michel.

Architecture as a tool in empowering marginalized communities. - 88 p.

Source: Masters Abstracts International, Volume: 49-02, page: 0717.

Thesis (M.Arch.)--Dalhousie University (Canada), 2010.

This thesis proposes a design that explores the notion of serving the underserved. It also examines the position of the architect, one that is participatory and where student, teacher, and architect are intertwined. The design proposal is set within a settlement near El Kef, Tunisia and looks at how implicating it in the development process is a paradigm shift that may provide an opportunity to diminish reliance on foreign aid and resources.

520 $a This thesis proposes a design that explores the notion of serving the underserved. It also examines the position of the architect, one that is participatory and where student, teacher, and architect are intertwined. The design proposal is set within a settlement near El Kef, Tunisia and looks at how implicating it in the development process is a paradigm shift that may provide an opportunity to diminish reliance on foreign aid and resources.
520 $a The design approach pays particular attention to cultural context, Arabic architecture and vernacular, and operates on the principle of using locally sourced materials as a method to link the less tangible human experiences: dialogue, dignity, empowerment, and a settlement's transition from occupying to inhabiting the land. In the process, architecture has the potential to act as a catalyst for change, simultaneously engaging and learning from those in the community.
