Kisito Children's Home in
Burkina Faso
Location: Burkina Faso
by Albert Faus Architects
Kisito Children's Home is a Residential Childcare for babies 0-24 months. Recent years some children have come presenting disabilities result of encephalopathy, which is why it has been impossible to find a host family until now. The orphanage is permanently at the limit of its capacity which forces babies and infants with disabilities to share the resting place. As the responsible explained, this practice makes the centre incurs malfunction because children need a specialized and differential treatment
The Community Planning & Design Initiative Africa (CPDI Africa) is a culture-inspired, research based, design-build competition, created to inspire the development of successful neighborhoods and communities on the continent, with modern African architecture that is both culturally and environmentally sustainable.
