Ooperia Foundation
Role - Project Leader / Local Coordinator
OOPERAI is philanthropic foundation for built environment awareness at early ages
In 2011, a foundation called OOperai was created in Panama with the scope to give accessibility to a creative and evaluative training of the built environment at early ages. For almost three years, OOperai have focused on children from six to twelve-year-old from low-income and conflict rural and urban settlements, which due to their rapidly growing population often encounter a lack of values in their lived spaces and a diffuse sense of quality in their immediate built environment. In 2013, OOperai started a project in India with children from Chennai and Mumbai, where we are implementing more creative engagements and exchanging their issues regularly. As part of this vision, OOperai has been responsible to implement international exchanges of built environment experiences between children from more than ten countries, with the scope to validate learned and experienced architectural typologies between Panama with a methodology called type.
Project Leaders are Bhoomi Mistry (IN), Hari Krishnan (IN), Jorge Barrantes (PA), Carlos Arrocha (PA) and Francisco Alveo (PA)
