Description: The community centre programme in Venezuela (ECC,Spanish initials for Espacios Culturales Comunitarios) wasundertaken in 2001 on the initiative of the Deputy Ministry ofCulture&#226;&#128;&#153;s Department of Cultural Buildings. The idea was todesign an extremely simple, flexible and inexpensive system,readily applicable all across the country and suitable for atropical climate. The programme was headed by ProfessorJuan Pedro Posani, who created the architectural design forthese centres. Engineer Jos&#233; Adolfo Pe&#241;a and architectCarmen Y&#225;&#241;ez authored the structural and buildingengineering. The solutions devised to meet constructionrequirements were based on two principles: the choice of alightweight prefabricated building system and the definition ofthe extreme climatic conditions characteristic of the tropics asthe core issue to be addressed.<br>In terms of architectural and humanist policy, the project is anarchitectural commitment to the environment, buildingtechnology and the conditions and demands of a clearlydisadvantaged social community.<br><br>El programa de los Espacios Culturales Comunitarios (ECC)en Venezuela surge de la direcci&#243;n de EdificacionesCulturales del ViceMinisterio de Cultura en el a&#241;o 2001. Laidea consiste en dise&#241;ar un sistema extremadamente sencillo,flexible y econ&#243;mico que pueda multiplicarse r&#225;pidamentepor todo el pa&#237;s y que sea capaz de responderadecuadamente a las condiciones contextuales del tr&#243;pico. Elprograma ha sido dirigido por el profesor Juan PedroPosani, quien concibi&#243; la arquitectura de los mismos. Laconcepci&#243;n estructural y constructiva es obra del ingenieroJose Adolfo Pe&#241;a y de la arquitecta Carmen Y&#225;&#241;ez. Larespuesta a las condiciones de partida se bas&#243; en dosprincipios: la elecci&#243;n de un sistema de prefabricaci&#243;n ligeray la consideraci&#243;n en primer plano de las condicionesclim&#225;ticas extremas propias del tr&#243;pico.<br>El proyecto, en t&#233;rminos de arquitectura y de pol&#237;tica humanista,es un compromiso arquitect&#243;nico con el medio ambiente, latecnolog&#237;a constructiva y las condiciones y exigencias de unmedio social claramente desfavorecido.
