In 2000, the United Nations agreed upon the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). The goals outlined a series <strong>of</strong> goals in order to eliminate<br />

poverty in the world. Since the goals were developed, governments and non-government organizations have pushed to serve underdeveloped<br />

countries. Honduras is a underdeveloped country that organizations and governments have been pushing to help achieve the MDG’s. The Model<br />

Home Project is an effort to design and build a low cost house that can serve as a living residence or business space. In order to achieve design<br />

goals, the house must be low cost, built from local materials, and incorporate multiple appropriate technologies. The technologies that could be<br />

incorporated include, biosand filters, rocket stove, rainwater catchment, and drip filters. Through the ETHOS program, a team will be sent down<br />

in May to build the house in Honduras.<br />
