Hi Qwen,
I’m a volunteer at MT, I’m at present in Nepal waiting for the rains to stop to start building projects. We’re very much interested in learning techniques in earth bag construction to teach to teach to local people focusing at this moment in time for earthquake victims. I hear you will be in Nepal in September running workshop. Could you pass on more information on these.
