Участникам предстоит поразмыслить о том, как восстановить связь человека и природы и способствовать решению проблем экологического кризиса. Задача конкурсантов – разработать проект одного из зданий образовательного сельскохозяйственного кампуса в Канаде. Кампус строится на территории, расположенной в лесной и фермерской зонах. Обязательные условия – абсолютная экологичность и максимальная приближенность архитектурного облика к естественной среде.

Community Forests International (CFI) is excited to announce its second architectural design competition for the backwoods cabin of the future. The first, hosted in 2014, drew in over 50 entries from 11 different countries and served as a platform for exploring how humans can get back to nature in the 21st century. Bringing together visionary architects, artists, green builders and DIYers, this new challenge addresses the climate crisis and will help transform the organization’s 235 hectare (580 acre) organic farm and forest outside of Sussex, New Brunswick, Canada into a Rural Innovation Campus.
The Rural Innovation Campus compliments parallel efforts in Tanzania, where a sister facility was constructed on the island of Pemba, Zanzibar in 2013. These two facilities, though worlds apart, are aligned in an international partnership devoted to uniquely rural solutions - solutions to challenges such as: food, water, and energy insecurity; economic marginalization; and, above all else, climate change.
