Abstract/Summary
Habitat for Humanity Global Village is an international organization that gathers materials and volunteers to build homes for less fortunate villages in more than 70 different countries. The team I applied for was chosen to build a house for a family of four in a village near Siem Reap, Cambodia. I chose this as my senior project because it combines my interests in construction and humanitarian work, as well as giving me the opportunity to expand my knowledge of a different country’s construction means and methods. I felt that that the best way to showcase the material that I have learned throughout my college career would be a hands-on project, that would people in need. During the trip the team was filled with experiences and knowledge that lead us to better understand the culture of local villagers, as well as place onto a team of members that have never met before.
