The following thumbnail relates to the research conducted on the work of the MCHG at McGill University and in the archives of the Canadian Center for Architecture in 2019.
The Minimum Cost Housing Group (MCHG) at McGill University School of Architecture is a research unit focused on solving the housing challenges of impoverished communities worldwide. Since the early 1970s, the MCHG team has participated in several action-research initiatives. Their research covered construction materials, small building components, low-cost sanitation and servicing systems, human settlements planning, and urban agriculture, in both the global South and the global North.
