Competition Scope
The competition is being launched to develop innovative approaches to
meet sustainable housing needs. Underlying the competition is a desire
to address the economic, environmental and social aspirations of a
growing world population. It is a population with an undisputed shortage
of housing that is fit for purpose and one growing at the rate of a
small city each day. The need to address the shortage quickly, cost
effectively, and in a way that does not diminish the world’s natural
environment is increasing.

International Union of Architects – UIA – and consequently follows the
provisions of the International Recommendations for Competitions in
Architecture and Urban Planning adopted by the General Conference of
UNESCO on 27 November 1978.
Type of Competition
This competition is an anonymous project competition in one stage, open
to architects, and teams led by an architect, by invitation.
