WORLD ARCHITECTURE DAY 2024
Empowering the Next Generation in Participatory Urban Design
Emphasising the role of young architects in urban planning and development. The UIA encourages young architects to engage in participatory processes, contributing fresh perspectives essential for sustainable development.
Particular emphasis is placed on fostering resilient urban economies where cities drive growth and recovery through innovative and sustainable practices. Key areas of focus for this years WAD include energy efficiency, waste management, use of sustainable materials and promotion of sustainable mobility.
These efforts aim to create environmentally friendly cities that reduce dependence on external resources. Young architects can also enhance citizen participation in decision-making, involve communities in the design process and promote the appropriation and care of public spaces.
Young architects play a key role to play in:
- Shaping resilient and sustainable urban environments.
- Advocating for social justice and sustainable practices.
- Engaging in urban planning processes.
- Promoting adaptive reuse and revitalisation of existing structures.
- Incorporating circular economy principles and sustainable construction practices.
Their active participation is essential for building cities that prioritise the well-being of residents and the planet, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
Empowering the Next Generation in Participatory Urban Design
World Architecture Day (WAD) 2024 is a global celebration of architecture’s influence on society. This year’s theme, “Empowering the Next Generation in Participatory Urban Design,” emphasizes the pivotal role young architects play in shaping sustainable, inclusive cities. As urbanization accelerates and climate challenges intensify, engaging the next generation in the design process ensures fresh, innovative solutions for community-driven, environmentally conscious urban spaces. WAD 2024 highlights the importance of youth participation in urban planning, where collaboration with local communities leads to cities that are resilient, socially inclusive, and responsive to future needs. Together, we design a better tomorrow.
“Empowering youth in design creates sustainable, inclusive cities for tomorrow.”
