SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING
Presenter(s): William D Wehner Advisor(s): Malcolm W Daniels Electrical and Computer Engineering - Course Project, 12_SP_EGR_330_P3 In 2000, the United Nations agreed upon the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). The goals outlined a series of goals in order to eliminate poverty in the world. Since the goals were developed, governments and non-government organizations have pushed to serve underdeveloped countries. Honduras is a underdeveloped country that organizations and governments have been pushing to help achieve the MDG’s. The Model Home Project is an effort to design and build a low cost house that can serve as a living residence or business space. In order to achieve design goals, the house must be low cost, built from local materials, and incorporate multiple appropriate technologies. The technologies that could be incorporated include, biosand filters, rocket stove, rainwater catchment, and drip filters. Through the ETHOS program, a team will be sent down in May to build the house in Honduras.
