Architecture for Humanity - Sydney We work with disadvantaged groups providing design services. We advocate and discuss about Social and Environmentally Sustainable Built Environments

Welcome to the Sydney Chapter of Architecture for Humanity! This Chapter has been set up because we think that social inequalities are increasing and disadvantaged groups are constantly growing in number. Our group focuses on helping the social and economically disadvantaged groups mainly through the provision of pro-bono design services. At the same time the Chapter aims at becoming an active pla

tform for advocacy and discussion about any topic related to Social and Environmentally Sustainable Built Environments (SESBE). We are positive thinkers that want to be catalysts for change. Please, join us! "Small changes can influence big outcomes"
