About in loco
Approach
Following a “hands-on, bottom-up” approach, and working in close collaboration with members of the local community, in loco engages local NGOs, students and young graduates from local architecture and construction courses, as well as international participants with an interest in architecture, development, sustainability and the built environment to create a network of shared knowledge and experience to help change the cities and rural villages of tomorrow.
Capacity building
in loco, was born from the idea that local issues should be dealt with by local people, and that international expertise can, instead of taking over, play a key role in capacity building and developing key skills, and the professional environment needed to deal with those issues.
