The refugee crisis is becoming one of the most pressing problems of recent years around the world, and these are crowded into camps, usually quite unhealthy.

To help these people, Abeer Seikaly, a Jordanian-Canadian architect and award-winning designer, designed an intelligent refugee store, which collects rainwater and stores solar energy.

Each store uses its own water collection system, through the natural channels formed by the surface of the store to direct the water to the storage point.

In addition, the fabric from which they are manufactured has great thermal properties, and they are capable of converting solar radiation into energy and heating water.

For now, the production of the store needs financing, you can join all your winnings from Christmas and donate it to make these stores.
