Heritage Foundation of Pakistan Survival of rural and local enterprises

Heritage Foundation of Pakistan Survival of rural and local enterprises

After attending one such Green Livelihoods workshop last year, a team of six participants from the village Pillari 2 decided to make soaps from natural reetha (soap-nut). Little did they know that their micro-enterprise will not only help them make ends meet but also provide a valuable service during a grave emergency. With the onset of COVID-19, hand washing became essential to control the spread of the virus. This provided an opportunity to the reetha soap team to begin marketing their product as soon as there was a little relaxation in the lockdown.

An exemplary case is Yasmeen Lari , the first Pakistani graduate in architecture (it was 1963) who in the last 12 years, after retiring, has become a sort of mentor who helps the population suffering from constant disasters - earthquakes and floods - in rebuild a life, starting from the roof of the house.

Yasmeen Lari, L'architetta Scalza Che Ha Lasciato I Grandi Progetti Per Le Case Di Fango

Once back in Pakistan after graduating from Oxford, not many were willing to entrust contracts and construction sites to what was, at the time, the first architect in the country . Yet Yasmeen Lari , born in 1941, quickly overcame the obstacle of gender stereotype by becoming one of the most well-known and prolific architects in his country and beyond.

Jane Drew Prize Ceremony

Jane Drew Prize Ceremony

The ceremony of W Awards was held on 6 March 2020 in the beautifully decorated hall of the Battersea Arts Centre. This Victorian-era building is quite spectacular and not the least because of the sensitive way it was conserved after a major fire – the evidence of the fire was not washed away but has been preserved which adds to its historical narrative and its integrity.
