(English / German / French)
In southern Mali, between Siby and Kalassa, several facilities for the CAAS development aid project have been built since 2018. A campus serves to train young women in small-scale farming techniques, while an agricultural enterprise provides practical training and production. The buildings are complemented by individual measures for school education, sports, medical care, and infrastructure. The publication documents the project by the Munich-based firm Wieland Schmidt Architekten in detail, from urban planning to details, and explains how it takes the climatic conditions of the Sahel into account. External contributions shed light on the development of the overall project, provide architectural and sociological context, and show that the plans are shaping the village beyond the boundaries of the campus.
