Millenia Architects awards scholarship

Lead Architect at Millenia Architects congratulates Ms. Nerrisa George (r)

As part of the Millenia Architects Guiding Light Initiative launched in June of 2018, a scholarship for tuition covering a one-year Architecture Associates degree program at the Dominica State College was awarded to Ms. Nerrisa George of Calibishie.

“The Millenia Group, comprising of Millenia Architects, Sorell Consulting Ltd., Kaliber Construction & Homes, and Millenia Realty, believes that sustainable development goes far beyond bricks and mortar that is why we have decided to invest in the development of the human resource that is needed to create a resilient economy for decades to come.” – Executive Director of the Millenia Group, Alistair Grell.

This initiative has also benefited two other young people so far.  The intern who went through our six (6) months internship last year has since been employed as a permanent member of our team.  Also, there is one person currently participating in on-the-job training and mentorship from our team.

    A commendable initiative and I wish Nerrisa George well in her studies.

    But as with sustainable development, architecture in Dominica needs go beyond bricks and mortar. I have yet to hear our architects speak out about the alien design and concept of the numerous ongoing government sponsored housing projects.

    With our abundant natural resources Dominica could set a regional benchmark for innovative architectural design and construction.
