Developing Architecture - Learning From Sierra Leone

Page 9

Architecture Sans Frontières Denmark (ASF-DK) has from the outset been driven by the wish to help, wherever help is asked for. The intentions of doing good for others, making valuable contributions to society and creating useful spaces are the main motivation of the involved members, combined with a curiosity about other cultures and a desire to improve professionally. Yet good intentions are not enough. A young organisation must learn to walk before running. Sharing of knowledge, hands-on experience and strong partnerships are necessary to ensure meaningful projects and accomplish the vision of providing architectural and planning expertise for those in need. Today, in 2013, ASF-DK has 16 projects in 10 countries, 210 members and an expanding network of professionals in a variety of fields, both in Denmark and beyond its borders, and is moving closer to realising our goals. So far, so good.
