Design of a warehouse with temperature cooling features

GOAL are rebuilding a drugs warehouse in Twic county, South Sudan. The temperature in that area can reach 45 degrees and the drugs should be stored at less than 30. We have the chance to spec a building that will keep cool enough using passive cooling design features. I am not an expert in this and I would like some help with the specs. Assistance in designing and specifying a building that will be 30 Celsius inside when the outside temp is as much as 45 Celsius using passive cooling features. The building will be built by local contractors so can't be too complicated or sophisticated.

I would also advocate for putting thatch over a CGI roof to keep the sun off to reduce heating. The next level of sophistication is to use the sun’s heat to cool the building by using a cooling tower to increase the ventilation, and by planting trees round the building so that the air drawn in is cooler.
