Mud Bricks (or often called Compressed Earth Bricks, CEB) is a new vision, inspired from the Golden Oldies Mission (GOM) trips to Fiji over the past decade.

Our goals include:

1. To create micro-enterprise benefits to informal settlements and villages to produce mud bricks for their own village housing and as a ‘cash crop’ to building suppliers.
2. To train youth in building skills to construct cyclone-proof housing in Fiji and throughout the Pacific.

Research has been a key part of the mud brick development

The Anglican Archbishop for Polynesia supportive of the venture

Recently we have gained supportive interest from the Anglican Church of Polynesia, NZ High Commission, the Fijian Government Housing Ministry, and a number of villages around Fiji’s two main Islands.

We have been experimenting with locally-sourced components, and working in partnership with our Fijian people to research to determine the best ‘ingredients’ and production methods.
