About Me

I am a budding Urban Designer and I work with/for street entrenched youth and other poverty minorities in Vancouver, B.C. I will have a 'demonstration project' on display during WUF3 and The World Peace Forum 2006 at the Great Northern Way Campus. This will involve the construction of structures: "potential homes for the homeless" which can be built with very little money. If you are interested in participating or volunteering. Start-up is in May; please contact me by e-mail: hendrikbeune@gmail.com (Re: 'BioSol Urban Villages Project'); my name is Henny B.

This profile is now largely outdated; I am presently employed as a support worker/ front desk with a supportive housing organization; I am also the editor of a street newspaper called "UPWORDS"; I am also the director of a citizens journalist group called AHAmedia and community representative on the Board of Directors at the Pivot Legal Society, a grassroots legal organization that strives for social justice.
