HUM:ARC is an international network for those interested in humanitarian architecture. It got started as a workshop in European Architecture Students Assembly EASA in Ireland in 2008 by Noora Aaltonen, Åshild Yri Åagren and Inari Virkkala. If you have something you'd like to share, please visit our facebook or send it to inari.virkkala (ät) gmail.com and we'll post it to the blog!
HUM:ARC on humanitäärisen arkkitehtuurin kansainvälinen verkosto. HUM:ARC ja sen jäsenet ovat osa Ukumbi Ry:tä. Meitä yhdistää vahva sitoumus kulttuurisidonnaiseen ja ekologiseen rakentamiseen sekä osallistavaan suunnitteluun; tavoitteenamme on käyttää asiantuntemustamme kriisialueiden asukkaiden hyväksi ja samalla viedä suomalaista arkkitehtuuriosaamista maailmalle.

USED MATTRESSES
This might be a last minute call, but if you have some good ideas of what to do with used mattresses then join Architecture for Humanity's Discarded Dreams Competition. The deadline is the 5th of December, and AFH is asking: Why are our mattresses being abandoned in dumps and left to the seagulls? Every year in the U.S. 40 million mattresses get thrown in the trash. Don’t our mattresses deserve another chance?
SHOW US SOME LOVE
The Architecture Sans Frontières UK is reaching out to everyone in order to get people to design t-shirts. The t-shirt is supposed to create awareness about ASF and their work, and the final submission date is the 21st of November. So, if you have some spare time and creativity, show our friends in London some love.
AND SO IT BEGINS
