This category is for [[Humboldt State University]]'s summer immersion in Appropriate Technology and Spanish taking place in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. We are a group of U.S. and Dominican students working together with various community members to co-create sustainable solutions. You can see more [[Practivistas Dominicana Program invitation|program details]] or see projects from past summers at [[HSU Chiapas]] and [[HSU Parras]].
 
In the summer of 2011, students studied appropriate technology and Spanish while working with community members of La Yuca to build a [[La Yuca ecoladrillo schoolroom|schoolroom from plastic bottles and concrete]], lit with [[La Yuca small scale renewable energy|solar and homemade wind power]] from bike parts and newspaper press waste, that catches its own [[La Yuca rainwater catchment|rainwater for cleaning and drinking]].

In the summer of 2012, students returned to Santo Domingo to continue our learning and community collaboration. Students worked with community members of La Yuca to make the [[La Yuca small scale renewable energy 2012|renewable energy system from bikeparts and newspaper press waste]] more hurricane safe and durable, and to make the [[La Yuca rainwater catchment 2012|rainwater catchment]] more potable and tested. In addition, students worked in Las Malvinas II to build a [[Las Malvinas ecoladrillo schoolroom 2012|classroom from plastic bottles, concrete, sawdust, papercrete and industrial wood waste]] for 25 young students.
