Students worked in teams with Mackenzie University students remotely to plan a project that will be implemented for use by Cisarte folks and the community at large. Teams utilized readings, class discussions, and personal experience to enhance project planning, construction, and advance an understanding of the interrelations of sustainability, social equity and impact design. In Sao Paulo, teams worked together to implement and construct these designs. Mackenzie students continued their work at the Cisarte site to finish implementation of these projects.
