This year, Pax in Terra, is entering a new phase by sending an intern, Teresa Taylor, a recently graduated student in architecture to Peru to explore the needs of the shanty towns that surround Lima, Peru.

She will be working with SACRO, an architecture and planning firm in Lima that focuses on long-term sustainable development projects for the poor of Peru. Our goal is to assess the needs of the shanty towns, document those needs on video, and return to help Pax in Terra develop a project in the shanty towns.
