Overview

Hand Over is an award winning social enterprise that utilizes sustainable construction for the sake of community development by building houses and structures that are beneficial for unprivileged communities. Hand Over tackles climate change by using local and earth materials as the main building components. Hand Over empowers and trains architecture and civil engineering students and connects them with the local community so they can work jointly on the designs and the implementation of the new buildings. At the same time Hand Over collaborates with local NGOs and private sector companies to facilitate the process. Hand Over strives to upgrade and empower underprivileged communities through environment friendly techniques.
