NE[O]ASIS /// Australia - Arabian Peninsula - Africa
Registration Deadline: Oct 17, 2021; Submission Deadline: Oct 17, 2021 This international Design Challenge invites students and young practitioners to work in women inclusive and interdisciplinary design teams to contribute ingenious and creative design ideas to a new interpretation of traditional oasis systems set in locations across Australia, the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa. In response to the climate emergency and the threat of ever-increasing desertification of large regions on the planet, and in alignment with the New Urban Agenda/Agenda 2030 and the UN Sustainable Development Goals SDGs the Challenge calls for creative design ideas showing how a new interpretation of self-sufficient oases in desert regions around the globe could look like, feel and work: a new oasis, the NE[O]ASIS. The NE[O]ASIS is envisaged to meet the challenges and opportunities of present and future self-sustained urban development in climatically challenged regions in deserts and drylands, with urban and architectural solutions that translate spatially a creative and sustainable vision of how we will live, work, play and co-evolve in future desert oasis systems. This Design Challenge is hosted by the Australian Pavilion at the Dubai Expo2020 in partnership with the UN-Habitat, Griffith University, The University of Queensland, Bond University, Effat University, and Zayed University.NE[O]ASIS is part of Ingenious Women's Initiatives for Sustainable Urban Development, a range of events hosted at the Australian Pavilion, in conjunction with the Women Majlis, at the Dubai Expo2020.
