Is anyone interested in building an ecohouse in the university (if we can get permission). Seeing as half of the university is currently a building site this could be a possible proposal. The building could be used to hold further sustainable building workshops (good marketing for the university), lectures etc. The labour would be free and all volunteers would get a valuable experience to add to their CV's. I think it would be a good project to do over the summer, when other deadlines are finished. It could perhaps be done over a series of weekends. As Bob from the lime centre showed - with enough people and good organisation it is possible to do this in a short space of time. I know of a few people who would be interested in this already. If we could set up a list and a meeting for interested parties this might be possible..
Let me know what you think...Clare Nunneley
What is the Sustainable Construction Programme?
The sustainable construction programme is a student initiative at Oxford Brookes University which aims to raise awareness of sustainable construction as well as providing practical experience in sustainable building. Workshops involve hands-on tuition from sustainable construction experts for a small group of students and these are followed by an evening lecture to a wider audience.

I'm wondering whether this could be a DS9 project for a group of people..?
