Educational projects represent the practical part of education in architecture. The aim of these projects, applied to the theme of the Biennial, is:

 

1. To critically reflect upon public spaces (school, urban and rural). The best way to reflect is by doing something. To do is to transform the world we live in.

​

2.​ ​To transform these spaces. It is proposed that artistic ‘languages’ (architecture, painting, sculpture, literature, cinema, theatre, dance…) are used as “tools which transform” in such a way so that:

 

· Physhical transformation of the space is achieved. The children create an architectural project or produce a temporary or permanent design (for example, enhance the school yard, produce a temporary design for a communal square, create a garden plot, etc.)

 

· Symbolic transformation of the space is achieved. They strengthen the mental concept of “public space” (for example, they create a play, a film, a story, etc.).

​

The children/young people are the instigators of the work and projects exclusively.

​

However, artists and teachers can help the children express themselves using the techniques of the art form in question.

 

Individuals/organisations/groups who may be working on this subject or who may wish to participate by submitting a project in line with the following conditions, are invited to take part.

​

The deadline ended on 15 November, 2017, having submitted almost 90 proposals.
