Project Manager

New Delhi, India
Job Type & Duration
Full-time
Background
mHS CITY LAB, a Delhi-based social enterprise, works towards improving the quality of informally built urban housing in developing countries.

With the ongoing rapid urbanisation, informal settlements are offering affordable housing to millions today, including new migrants looking for livelihood opportunities in urban centers. Apart from the lack of basic services, these settlements suffer from poor quality construction which is often seismically unsafe.

The enterprise's vision is to help create socially inclusive cities by designing, testing and demonstrating a portfolio of viable solutions for safer housing for residents of informal settlements in developing countries. mHS' work in India helps residents to self-construct, and, thereby, to participate in the development of local neighbourhoods that will improve their safety, health and overall inclusion into cities.
​
The team believes that inclusive cities are built on the foundations of DESIGN, COMMUNITY AND AFFORDABILITY.
