Mud Brick Construction

Mud Brick Construction

Mud is used worldwide for construction and building. It is readily available, minimal or zero cash and environmentally benign.

These men make it look easy, but, believe me it isn’t. There is a lot of skill involved.

Baraka often uses mud to construct our Women’s Enterprise Centres and Warehouse. It makes use of local labour and materials, has much less environmental impact and provides more impact to the community. As long as it is built on a good foundation and the bricks are plastered over to prevent erosion and decay it can last for a very long time. There are mud-constructed buildings in Ghana (Mosques) that are hundreds of years old.

You can see more on what a mud constructed building looks like in this video Building and using the Tabiasi Women’s Enterprise Centre https://youtu.be/Tq0ScjRXAl4

#KnowYourProducts – a series of informational posts about Baraka Butters, Oils, Baskets and more. And about the women, families and communities that make them. We believe the more you know, the better choices you make, the better products you make, the better you can educated and serve your customers and the more support for providing hard-working women in Ghana with the dignity of income

These next lines give you more information about Baraka Impact – read them if interested.

What we hope you take away from this post more than anything is that you impact women, families and communities when you buy from Baraka and that it is important to know the source of your products and the impact you make

For example, it is so easy to have ‘raw and unrefined’ shea butter that was industrially processed, chemically extracted and all the income and impact ripped from the women and given to the factory. See more in this blog https://barakasheabutter.com/sheabutt...

All Baraka products are harvested and hand processed by women in rural Ghanaian villages using age-old traditions and techniques. It is core to traditional life and to their economic well-being. Every purchase provides them with the dignity of income.

You make a difference with every purchase from Baraka, or from people who make products with Baraka Shea Butter.

It has a direct impact on hard-working women and their families.
