Civil war, which has been ravaging Yemen since 2015, has led to the biggest, current humanitarian crisis in the contemporary world. 22 million people are in need of assistance, as two-thirds of the population cannot buy food, and bad sanitation caused the biggest cholera outbreak in modern times. The dire conditions of the overcrowded refugee camps take particular toll on the most vulnerable groups ‒ people with disabilities and women. My proposed construction attempts to ensure the dignity of all refugees in the camp, offering provisions for each disadvantaged group. Inspired by Shigeru Banʼs spirit of humanitarian action, the facility is simple in design, but tough enough to offer sufficient sanitation in the event of a protracted crisis.
