The
purpose is to provide the organization and process
to respond properly to situations where there are
clearly established needs for low cost, earthquake
and storm proof buildings.
|
To instruct and empower the people to undertake
the conversion of international shipping containers
to meet those needs, and in so doing, develop their
own capacities to help themselves in times of emergency
and improve their economic condition.

CONTAINER PARTNERSHIPS is an organization
that has perfected a method and system to economically
convert retired international shipping containers
into sustainable housing and community buildings
such as medical facilities, schools and neighborhood
centers. The proven system is based on matching
a team of our experts with local citizens to create
needed structures, to teach skills to local team
members and to aid local economic development. This
training and knowledge will better prepare the residents
to help the advancement of their own communities
while raising their own personal standard of living.

| The
containers, made of steel or aluminum and designed
to support extreme loads, are the building blocks
of the construction. They may be assembled in a
variety of configurations meeting specific requirement
of site or community. They allow for the use of
unskilled labor in constructing the buildings. They
can provide secure space, support second floors
and roofs, bridge uneven grades and generally establish
the structural foundations for a successful building
at costs well below conventional construction.
In
addition to the conversion, installation and transformation
of containers into sustainable buildings; the GLOBAL
CONTAINER PARTNERSHIPS team
encourages and helps train community residents to
take an active role in improving their living conditions,
education and neighborhoods |
