Announcement

WORLD HABITAT AWARDS: CALL FOR ENTRIES 2001 Entries are currently being sought for the 2001 World Habitat Awards. This is the seventeenth year of this annual competition, which has been highly successful in attracting outstanding human settlements projects. The winning projects have received world-wide publicity, with a view to encouraging their replication in many other countries. Projects are sought, in both developed and developing countries, which offer sustainable futures to residents and which provide practical and imaginative solutions to current housing problems. A panel of international assessors assess the projects. The two Award winners each year receive £10,000 plus an individually designed and crafted silver trophy. The Awards are presented each year on World Habitat Day and in 2000 were presented by Hon. Seymour Mullings, Deputy Prime Minister of Jamaica.
