Zusammenfassung:Raskin features the Butaro Doctors' Housing in Butaro, Rwanda, build by MASS Design Group. The project, developed in partnership with Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) and its Global Surgery program, was the brainchild of BWH donor Daniel Ponton. The four houses are the first structures on Umusozi Ukiza--the Healing Hill--which MASS has master-planned to eventually include more individual dwellings, shared housing for staff without families, a community center, and living quarters for cancer patients and their families. The houses are owned by the Ministry of Health, and the doctors who live there do not pay rent.
