Making... A Difference 2022
It is hard to argue that housing is not a fundamental human need. Decent, affordable housing should be a basic right for everybody in this country. The reason is simple: without stable shelter, everything else falls apart.

The BCX building in Midrand provides the opportunity to create affordable housing while at the same time catering to the social and economical needs of the residents. It provides a platform for learning and skill sharing as well as providing spacial and infrastructural empowerment.
