New project: partnering with Lyra in Africa on sustainable hostels for girls in rural Tanzania 🌍
We’re delighted to announce a new partnership with UK charity Lyra in Africa, supporting their Hostels for Rural Girls programme.
Lyra builds low-carbon hostels beside remote secondary schools, many serving villages up to 30km away, so girls can stay on site and complete their education. Each hostel is built with the local community, then handed over to run. The result is 16+ hostels, housing over 1,500 girls a year, built from interlocking earth bricks rather than fired bricks.
Over the coming months, we’ll help refine the current hostel design and explore how future hostels could adapt to very different sites and climates across the region, with scalability, sustainability and community ownership at the core.
Senior Architect Joe Davis and Site Architect Paulina-Shari Stanley have just returned from site visits in rural Tanzania, and we look forward to sharing more very soon. 👀

Our Impact Report 2025-26 is out now, and it tells the story of buildings that don’t just get delivered, but last. 🏗️
See how we’re building possibility for communities worldwide.
Inside this edition:
📈 Our climate-resilient hospitals, schools and homes now serve over 640,000 people every year. Since Article 25 began, our buildings have served more than 3.1 million people.
🏥 Read about our latest work in healthcare, including the new National Hospital in Montserrat, the first dedicated paediatric eye care facility in the East Africa region, a leprosy research lab in Nepal, and the reimagining of a century-old hospital campus in Laos.
🏫 Our work spans education too. In Tanzania, we’re building an off-grid school from Kilimanjaro volcanic stone, giving 340 children a safe, sustainable place to learn.
🤝 We’re so thankful to our clients and to our More Than a Building network, who make this work possible. A huge thank you to our pro bono engineering partners Hoare Lea, Max Fordham LLP and MHA Structural Design. For every £1 donated, we secure another £1 of pro bono expertise, so budgets stretch further without compromising on quality.

We’re delighted to welcome Ashley Bateson as a new Trustee of Article 25 🎉
Ashley is Director & Head of Sustainability at Hoare Lea, a long-term supporter of Article 25, and we’re excited about this new appointment and the expertise and value he will bring to our organisation.
Hoare Lea has a global impact, designing buildings and engaging with local communities facing construction and infrastructure challenges and climate change. This aligns closely with our own work: Article 25’s legacy is not just the delivery of new schools, hospitals and other essential buildings, but also local upskilling and long-term capacity building.
Welcome to the team, Ashley. We’re excited to see what comes next, and look forward to working together.
More news on why Ashley joined Article 25 in this role soon.

🏗️ This #UN Day, we’re reminded where our name comes from.
Article 25 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights recognises that everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for their health and wellbeing, including housing and medical care. For 20 years, that principle has shaped how we design.
In our latest article, we look at what it means in practice, through three projects built around people, place and purpose:
🔹 People: In Laos, a phased masterplan and new three-storey Acute Care Building will transform Khammouane Provincial Hospital, a campus that has grown incrementally for over 100 years.
🔹 Place: In Nepal, a new four-storey research laboratory, set into a Sunakothi hillside with locally sourced stone and brick, secures the future of leprosy research after the 2024 landslides.
🔹 Purpose: In Tanzania, Kao La Amani School is being built with local volcanic stone, passive cooling and off-grid solar power, a first for a school in the region.
Rights only become real when they are built. The architecture of possibility begins by listening to people, understanding places and designing with purpose.

Possibility, built.

#ResilienceStartsAtHome, and it starts long before disaster strikes.
This International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction, the @unitednations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) is reminding us that homes are where disaster impacts are felt most, and where resilience can be built. How a home is planned, designed and built decides whether risk is reduced or created.
This principle shapes the homes, hospitals and schools we deliver in places exposed to hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and landslides.
Homes: In Dominica, where Hurricane Maria damaged or destroyed 85% of homes, we led the rebuilding of 450 homes using six adaptable models designed around local ways of living and the hazards families may face again.
Healthcare: In Montserrat, our new National Hospital is designed to keep working through hurricanes and earthquakes. In Nepal, the Anandaban Trauma Centre was only minimally affected by the 2024 landslides.
Schools: In Haiti, the Boisrond Tonnerre School has earthquake-resistant classrooms for 300 students and is also used for adult education.
Resilience has been at the heart of our work for years. Revisit our 2025 article on how we design buildings to withstand disasters via the link in our bio.

Architecture starts with possibility. Delivering it means confronting complexity.
A material arrives in an unexpected size. A structural requirement changes a detail overnight. A site architect is thousands of miles from the rest of the design team.
For Article 25, these are everyday realities, from a hospital rebuild in Montserrat to a school at the foot of Kilimanjaro.
Thanks to @autodesk and the Autodesk Foundation, and their Technology Impact Program, our teams have used AutoCAD, Revit, Forma and the Autodesk Learning Platform not simply to draw buildings, but to understand problems, coordinate disciplines and test possibilities before decisions ever reach the construction site.
Since 2023, this partnership has supported our work on nine projects across eight countries and territories, helping turn constraints, like a volcanic stone block of an unexpected size in Tanzania, into lasting, sustainable solutions.

Over the past weeks, Indonesia has experienced significant volcanic activity across several islands, with eruptions at Mount Anak Krakatau, Mount Semeru, Mount Sinabung and Mount Ile Lewotolok disrupting communities, transport and daily life across the region. Our thoughts are with everyone affected, and with the response teams working to support them.
Indonesia sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire, home to some of the most active volcanic systems in the world. Events like these are a reminder of why disaster-resilient design matters - not after the fact, but from the very first line drawn on a project.
This is a principle we know first-hand. Following the catastrophic 1995 volcanic eruption on Montserrat, which destroyed the island's only hospital, we have been working with the Montserratian Government, partners and communities to design and deliver a new national hospital - a facility essential to the island's long-term healthcare objectives, and built to last. Engineered to keep functioning through hurricanes, earthquakes and ash fall, it will feature a back-up generator and water tank designed to keep life-critical services running when they're needed most.
This approach extends across our work - from seismic design and hurricane-resistant housing to monsoon-ready infrastructure - shaped by the specific hazards each community faces. Earlier this year, this way of designing for the long term was recognised with the AIA UK Award for Environmental Stewardship, for Kao La Amani Children's Village, Africa's first off-grid orphanage.
We believe good design should anticipate the next disaster, not just respond to the last one.

Nearly 70 years of leprosy research at Anandaban Hospital, Nepal, is entering a new chapter.
After the 2024 landslides destroyed the site earmarked for a new research laboratory, Article 25 has been working with The Leprosy Mission Great Britain and The Leprosy Mission Nepal to find a safer home for this vital work. A new site has now been secured in Sunakothi, Lalitpur, and a concept design agreed for a resilient, purpose-built facility.
This rebuilding effort comes at a time when communities across Nepal are once again facing the devastating impact of flooding and landslides. Our thoughts are with everyone affected.

🏗️ World Architecture Festival 2026 Charity Partner Spotlight: Article 25
For the second year running, we're proud to announce @Article_25, the UK's leading humanitarian architecture NGO, as WAF's official charity partner.
For over 20 years, Article 25 has worked with governments, NGOs and communities worldwide to design and deliver resilient hospitals, schools and homes in some of the toughest, most climate-stressed places on Earth - proof that great design should reach everyone, not just the few.
This month alone, their work spans:
🏥 Kenya - concept design for East Africa's first government-run paediatric eye care centre, in a country where 80%+ of blindness is preventable or curable
🏆 Laos - a completed masterplan to transform a century-old hospital campus, with Phase 1 construction targeted for late 2026
🏅 Tanzania - at Kao La Amani Primary School construction continues of key facilities, including a brand new dining hall, for 300 children. The neighbouring Children's Village they delivered just won an AIA UK 2026 Citation, home to 60 orphaned children, fully off-grid and built with local materials
Design at its best doesn't just look good - it changes lives.
