The training combines construction techniques and heritage protection, according to Journal du Niger.
A training construction site in Agadez, northern Niger, is training 120 young people in bioclimatic construction techniques as part of the “BRIQUE – Un avenir en construction” project. Funded by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS), the programme combines vocational training with preparations for a new neighbourhood intended for residents of the city’s historic centre, reports Journal du Niger.
The delegated administrator of the Urban Commune of Agadez, Battalion Commander Assarid Almoustapha, visited the training construction site to examine the project’s progress and prospects. The initiative aims to train new professionals in bioclimatic construction methods while helping to preserve Agadez’s architectural heritage.
