# Ecological bricks in social projects

Local governments, NGOs, universities and community build days use the soil-cement brick to build better homes, with the community itself making the bricks.

2×stronger than the common brick, on average

3×faster to raise the walls

Example

## Sustainable Community Project, by UnB

The University of Brasília created a public housing project in which the community makes the bricks and helps build the houses.

### Award finalist

The project was a finalist for the Fundação Banco do Brasil Award.

### The community produces

Residents make the bricks and take part in the build, which cuts cost and creates jobs.

### Other examples

Like UnB, other university projects, local governments and NGOs reach similar results.
