Ethical Architecture Award
Ethical Architecture Award is the project geared toward supporting and rewarding an ethical approach to architecture and design
In a world where the gap in the distribution of resources is dramatically widening, where social issues multiply on a daily basis, there is an urgent need to promote a culture for human beings, their rights and dignity.
Architecture is one of the main disciplines that can favor wellbeing and social equity by giving identity to places and providing human beings with services and beauty.
Therefore, to reaffirm the culture of an ethical and social architecture- namely an architecture for the human being- “Ethical Architecture Award” was established.
Ethical Architecture Award is Dynamo’s and Yac’s project aiming at supporting and awarding an ethical approach to architecture and design in order to honor young people and professionals whose work favors the human and social dimension of architecture.
