MUD RESCU™
Mud Reusable Emergency Shelter Cluster Units
Mass displacement demands speed. Within hours, shelters must rise, camps must function, and basic survival must be secured. For decades, plastic tents have been the default: lightweight, mass-produced, easy to ship, and fast to assemble.
But in climates where heat, dust, and cultural needs demand more than thin plastic walls, tents fail.
We have not rejected mud because it failed — we have simply never given it a fair chance.
Developed by URBAN STEPS in collaboration with the non-profit organizations Breshna Foundation for Culture and MyGrandStory gGmbH.
MUD RESCU™ is a modular, low- carbon, culturally grounded shelter system made from compressed earth.It is designed for transitional protection — not as a permanent settlement, but as a dignified alternative in predictable or protracted crises.
