Description

Each year, the award honors five architects who "contribute to a more equitable and sustainable development and create an innovative and participatory approach to meet the needs of societies,"[1] whether they are experts in economics, construction, or self-development actors for whom sustainability is synonymous with social and urban equity.

The Scientific Committee of the Award counts on scholars from the Mimar Sinan University Istanbul, the International Architecture Biennale Ljubljana and the Università Iuav Venice. Since 2010, the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture is under the high Patronage of UNESCO.[2]
