Bamboo times: building change in emergency contexts
Eva Samalea | TEDx CadizUniversity
"Eva promotes sustainable, culturally rooted solutions in emergency architecture. After working in major humanitarian crises across Africa, she explored the potential of bamboo in Indonesia—an adaptable, local, and ecological material. Today, she focuses on ways of building that respect both people and the planet."
