Brazilian missionaries bring ecological building to Africa
A church built in an African community in much less time than an ordinary building would take.
Building with soil-cement brick has the lowest possible impact on the environment. We already know that: less waste and less mortar, fewer pollutants, because the brick does not need to be fired, and a whole list of other benefits. But there is another reason many people choose ecological brick: the work goes faster.
With that in mind, Brazilian missionaries built a church in an African community in much less time than an ordinary building would take. There they guide people and share their faith to strengthen them in daily life, and all of it in working time that the speed of the build made possible.
Vimaq is part of this project and hopes more and more people can benefit from the convenience and speed that ecological brick brings to construction.
