LAST RESULTS
1998
The United Nations has declared the period 1997-2006 to be the World Decade for the eradication of poverty. In support of this initiative the International Union of Architects will organise, during the coming years, various activities with a view to highlighting the role of architects and architecture in achieving this aim As part of this effort, the UIA launched an international. ideas competition, open to the architects and students of architecture of the world. The aim of this competition was to propose design ideas that could contribute to the eradication of poverty. This competition was organised with the support of UNESCO.
Open and anonymous, the competition was organised in two sections: one open to architects holding professional qualifications recognised by their UIA Member Section; the second to students of architecture registered in a school of architecture recognised by the UIA member Section of their country. Entries were grouped according to the place of residence of their authors in the five UIA Regions, and adjudicated within this geographical spread. Organised according to the UNESCO/UIA Recommendation concerning international competitions in architecture and town planning, the competition was approved by the International Union of Architects (UIA).
The Union of Architects of Romania - UAR, organised and hosted the jury meeting which took place in Bucharest from 25 to 27 April 1998 and also the exhibition of projects at the National Theatre (Nicolae Balescu street, 2 - Secteur 1 -) in Bucharest, running until 15 May 1998. A publication of the results of the competition will also be undertaken by the UAR.
The official prize giving ceremony will take place on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the UIA, in Lausanne (Switzerland), on 5 June 1998.
The competitors were to propose solutions aimed at improving the living conditions of the most deprived in all the regions of the world, developped or developping and across the sphere of human settlements.
