Leila Meroue is the founding director of the NGO Let’s Build My School and her own architectural practice LM Architecture. Focused on sustainability and humanitarian work, Leila speaks to us about her research and design methodology; and her work and interests in the natural world, sustainable materials, and community empowerment.
Let’s Build My School is an initiative which uses locally sourced materials to construct schools in remote areas in developing countries. Skilling up both global volunteers from around the world and the local communities in Senegal, where the schools are built, the building techniques learnt can then be replicated in the future.

As Leila said at the end of the call “It’s really not about me at all, I was very hesitant in the beginning to join your interview because I am not a big fan of going and throwing in my own story, but I thought it would be a great thing to do it for the kids and build for others all the time."
