Reprise UMAR Workshop of Gaza : Amman, 1 – 13 July 2024

The Union of Mediterranean Architects, in collaboration with the School of Architecture and the Built Environment at the German-Jordanian University, is organising a two-week workshop programme, which is also a design competition, open to all Mediterranean architecture graduate students looking to start and develop their practice in the region. The course will take place at the German University of Jordan, in Amman, from 1 to 13 July 2024 and will focus on developing skills for the analysis of the current context in the conflict zone of the Gaza Strip, translating the research findings of the last 2023 Port Gaza workshop and the current humanitarian needs of the territory into an integrated architectural, infrastructure and landscape design response. It is a chance for future architects, from all over the region, to show their talent and get exposure and potentially interact and intervene within their community motivated by a Mediterranean agenda and knowledge exchange.
