Build Change by training technical high school students in how to read a blueprint and design and build an earthquake-resistant house in Peru or China. Build Change's winning mix of hands-on practical training has reached 245 Indonesian technical high school students so far. These future engineers, architects, drafters, and construction supervisors, mentored by our Indonesian staff, improve their test scores by an average 50% by taking our course. Help us to scale this program to other parts of the world affected by recent earthquakes, namely Ica, Peru and Sichuan, China.
