DESCRIPTION
The project consists out of a research part: ‘Critical Alternative Approach to/within Post-disaster Re-Development’ and a design part: ‘Spatial Strategy to Enable Cultural Resilience in Villa Rosa, Port-Au-Prince (Haiti)’. The research outcome presents a critical alternative approach in strategy within (post-disaster re-)development. It describes the relevance of urbanism and urban planning in the practice of development. The approach links educational development projects to overall improvement of infrastructure by structuring resilient and sustainable interventions as principal objectives. The design is a spatial strategy. The design outcome present the materialization of the research findings as well as a critical approach to resilient and sustainable urban planning which reflects the need for urban strategies concerning the contemporary, global issue of rapid urbanization: slumming.

‘The Vertical Passage’ is illustrative of the infrastructural improvement needed in Villa Rosa. The steep hillside and narrow pathways are an example of how prioritizing individual focus (i.e. housing) overrides public systems and result in bad connectivity. Direct passages to primary roads, accompanied by water initiatives are illustrative of a infrastructural intervention with sustainable outcomes through (passive) re-use of water.The street profile of the primary road is adjusted to offer efficient flows of pedestrians and cars. The veranda/porches are spaces to linger and the car road/street is prioritized for car/truck use. Therefore, small public spaces are included in the sidewalk.
‘The Belt’ is, in a physical sense, a radical intervention of retention walls which also function as passage ways. Because of the height difference, interventions are easily accessible on two levels which
allows for sanitation projects to be maintained by local civic organizations/GROs. Most basic services interventions require an heuristic approach. Meaning, they are flexible (trial-and-error), easily accessible
(low-threshold), and easily maintained. Various small (CBO) organizations, or entrepreneurial inhabitants should be able to maintain these public works and by doing so formalize a local need (e.g.
education/’titling’) through capacity building.The principal interventions; school and church, are facilities focusing on this highly dense area (Morne Rosa) and offer an otherwise secluded part more public program and utilities, and above all resilience
and (infrastructural) connectivity.
‘The Park’ is the only considerable sized public space in Villa Rosa. Currently a tent city, it must evolve towards a public park connecting two (expanding) school projects. By introducing program to this public space the
park is framed and forms a barrier against possible urbanization via dwellings. An irrigation site for water filtration and re-use offers the community additional access to water resources, originally initiated via water
interventions on a higher point in the area. When capacity building is achieving its goals, a local CSO/CBO office will be permanently situated between the schools. For community awareness purposes, an open-doors theater is added. Also, playgrounds and fragmented public spaces are all concentrated in the park where the
social presence and control is the highest. The rest of the park is reserved as natural landscape.
‘The Valley’ illustrates the main objective for NGOs to integrate Haitian identity in the process of production. Localizing, educating, and monitoring the production of construction materials is at core of many on-site NGOs’ exit strategies. The permanent installment of a production hall will facilitate this co-operative approach and eventually will become an educational institution which facilitates small-scale construction projects.Sustainable energy resources are paramount in improving the resilience. This is made possible by solar power roof structures. The community has access to the provided surfaces via participation in the construction processes or via, the integrated intervention, waste management. As a infrastructural node this project will eventually have to be protected by rentention walls and is the lowest part of the road network in Villa Rosa.
