What if the path to climate resilience was not found in glass and steel — but in earth, craft, and community?

This is just one of the provocative questions we explored with Daniel Parra on the latest Awarepreneurs podcast episode, hosted by our very own Paul Zelizer.

Bio: Daniel Parra is a Colombian architect and was born in Soccorro, Santander - a small town with a rich history. He is the leader of the Rammed Earth Collective, an international design–build collaborative advancing earthen architecture. His practice blends traditional tapia pisada with contemporary design to create low-carbon, place-rooted buildings. Through Ciudad Insecto Estudio and Rammed Earth Colombia, Daniel designs, documents, and teaches earthen construction across Latin America. His work focuses on craft, climate resilience, and dignified housing that grows from the colors and soils of each site.
