Project Safe Refuge (PSR)

PSR uses a participatory approach to create thoughtful, functional spaces that offer safety, dignity, and a sense of belonging to displaced communities.

As of 2024, over 122.6 million people worldwide have been forcibly displaced due to conflict, persecution, and natural disasters. While early warning systems, emergency preparedness, and climate adaptation efforts have reduced loss of life, the reality remains stark: millions—especially those in vulnerable, low-income communities—continue to lose their homes and livelihoods. Climate change is intensifying these crises, and the number of displaced people is expected to grow significantly in the years ahead. If displaced communities are fortunate enough to get a shelter they could also face further issues with shelters not being climate or culture appropriate, which can further worsen their mental and physical health.

At PSR, we work closely with displaced communities to understand their needs firsthand. Using our experience in architecture, design, and construction, we create thoughtful, functional spaces that offer safety, dignity, and a sense of belonging. Our work is rooted in collaboration, resilience, and the belief that everyone deserves a place to call home—even in the most challenging circumstances.

We design with the people, for the people, using a participatory approach. Through workshops, surveys and more we involve the communities in the creation of their spaces. We aim for our projects to be sustainable, circular and affordable.
