Europan Europa

Europan 18 Theme:Re-sourcingThe fragility of the Earth’s ecosystem and social crises lead to the imagination of alternative practices to harmful extraction of resources, overconsumption and pollution of living milieus. Regenerating projects embracing nature and culture are to be though and implemented. It is about weaving synergies between biogeophysical data with socio-spatial justice and health ones. Three main directions for designing forms of resilience and resourcing of inhabited milieus make possible to reactivate other forms of dynamics and narratives around the ecologies of living and caring.

Europan is a thematic competition of ideas / projects of architecture, urbanism and landscape, followed by implementation processes.

Europan is a tool for European cities and urban actors to find and develop innovative strategies for their sites in transformation.

Europan is a platform for young professionals of urban, landscape and architectural design less than 40.
