Building Ubuntu-Blox Structures With Vetiver Roots


Harvey Lacey is the inventor of the open source Ubuntu-Blox building technology. We caught up with him in Port-au-Prince, where he shared his latest discovery: using agricultural waste from vetiver to build Ubuntu-Blox in rural areas for a fraction of a penny. For more details, check out the Ubuntu-Blox Facebook page.

Thanks to Harvey Lacey for sharing his wisdom with us, and to Haiti Communitere for providing a space to nurture both the Ubuntu-Blox project and ChangeStream Media’s outreach efforts in Haiti.
