Start date: Dec 1, 2015, End date: Nov 30, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The representatives of organisations taking part in the project are the best specialists on ecological construction. They have acquired their knowledge and skills principally as autodidacts but also by participating in different trainings in Europe and elsewhere in the world. So far in Estonia the trainings about ecological construction have been basically for the amateurs; there is a lack of professional and thorough learning materials as well as competent trainers who could hand on their knowledge, skills and experience in a logical and clear way. The enterprise Saviukumaja OÜ would like to initiate the creation of a training centre on traditional and ecological art of construction which will promote, counsel and teach the use of traditional and ecological solutions in construction and part of the general life as well. We are basically focused on clay as the historical local construction material in South-Estonia. We value local traditions as well as the traditions from other countries and people, organize local and international trainings in order to share experience.As we will continue our intense international cooperation and trainings, we would like to be known as a professional training centre in Europe and elsewhere in the world. We would also like to assist local people interested in taking part in trainings with our international partners.
