37. 03-July-07pucpr workshop karlsruhe 37 Eco-Vila Webpage lThis Website documents the results of a cooperation between the lab for town planning in the global context (GLORA), of the college group Engineers without borders (EWB) at the Universität Karlsruhe as well as the Pontificia Universidade Catlica do Parana (Curitiba). lThe objective was to improve the quality of live for the inhabitants of a poor quarter by the way of a resettlement scheme. lThe resettlement project Building for the Community sought to develop a new housing estate by involving the population. Innovative and recycled materials played an important role. lThe available pages are used for the documentation of model like propositions of an ecological settlement planning and should be seen as a basis for further projects.

38. 03-July-07pucpr workshop karlsruhe 38 Eco-Vila Webpage lWe sought to develop an ecological low-cost settlement for 25 families in a periphery location before the town gates of Curitiba. lSmall groups (2-4 students) worked on the task of a town urban planning sceme or with a focus on the building structure. lThe specific character of a simulation game was the particular feature of this design exercise. Three types of cards were offered: la) Cards with handicaps to the ecological livelihoods (i.e. recycling or urban agriculture or l tourism) lb) Cards with risk factors (i.e. storm, high water, earth quakes etc.) lc) Cards with handicaps for the building-material and kind of construction (i.e. bamboo-, clay- or brick construction)
