===Pro-bono design and construction=== The organization provided pro-bono design and construction management services and funding for projects around the world, including developing and building schools in West Africa and [[Haiti]], developing long-term rebuilding efforts in [[Myanmar]] after [[Cyclone Nargis]], and constructing sports for social change facilities in Africa and South America. Work has also included long-term reconstruction in India and Sri Lanka following the [[Indian Ocean tsunami]], rebuilding initiatives in the United States after [[Hurricane Katrina]], and hosting a number of international design competitions. Architecture for Humanity promoted humanitarian and social design through partnerships, advocacy and education based programs. To that end, they have consulted with government bodies and relief organizations on a number of projects, including [[land mine|landmine]] clearance programs and [[playground]] building in the [[Balkans]]; transitional housing for [[Internally displaced person|IDP]]s in [[Afghanistan]], [[Sudan]] and [[Grenada]]; school building in [[Rwanda]], [[Tanzania]] and [[Uganda]]; and earthquake reconstruction assistance in [[Pakistan]], [[Turkey]] and [[Iran]]. The organization also sought to foster public appreciation for the many ways that architecture and design can improve lives.
