Скачать или смотреть How to build safer housing after a disaster | Elizabeth Hausler

Elizabeth Hausler is a skilled brick and stone mason as well as a civil engineer and environmental scientist -- which comes in handy in her work as CEO of Build Change, which works to build safer homes for people affected by natural disasters. Substandard, shoddily built housing plays a dangerous role in disasters like hurricanes and earthquakes -- and the period of disaster recovery is a time to set it right. She gives us practical solutions toward empowering people to build safe homes for themselves.

NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
