Building a Community in Kosovo : Building a Community in Kosovo
For two years, Maurice Mitchell and students from London Metropolitan University worked in Kosovo to help recreate a public realm for communities where it had been wiped out by war. The projects they worked on included a post office for people who had no address, a sustainable water collection and distribution system, a swimming pool, a park surrounding a reed bed filtration system, a canopy for a market and theatre area, a women's refuge and rape crisis therapy centre and a safe play space made from scrap materials. The book targets design students, architects, development workers and emergency relief staff and aims to encourage those working in the field of community development to use appropriate and sustainable technologies in an urban environment.
