Refugees need durable housing:
In 2025, Every Shelter helped 4,432 refugees access more durable homes.
THE HUMANITARIAN DESIGN FIRM
When architects and designers work where refugees live, proximity reveals local materials, simple ways of building, and systems that empower—unlocking paths for refugees to build durable homes with us, not simply from us.
Immediate Need
We are currently responding to new arrivals in Uganda from the crisis in the DRC. Our Paa Bora program needs your support to empower widows and their families to build and create home.
Current Work

What We Do
We help refugees build homes and neighborhoods by making design accessible in refugee settlements.
Our Mission
Good design and quality shelter is important for the 120 million people forcibly displaced in the world today. That's what we do, with and for refugees. Learn more about our mission.
