Refugee camp design addresses the urgent need for dignified, functional spaces in displacement contexts. Designers explore how architecture can provide immediate shelter while supporting long-term resilience and community wellbeing for displaced populations.

The community examines transitional housing solutions, adaptive settlements for specific refugee groups, and innovative shelter typologies. Work ranges from psychological resilience toolkits and bio-responsive structures to low-cost housing prototypes and forest-integrated refuges that balance temporary necessity with environmental integration.
