Cash prizes, Internship and construction are provided for winners, selected by an international jury made up of pregistous architectural firms.
The challenge of 2022's edition is to design a ‘Children’s House’ in Senegal, as a warm and welcoming place where activities aimed at preventing child malnutrition can be carried out in a rural environment. The children of today are the leaders of tomorrow; allowing them to develop properly is essential in order to build a better future.
We imagine a ‘Children’s House’ as a warm and welcoming place where activities aimed at preventing child malnutrition can be carried out in a rural environment. The children of today are the leaders of tomorrow; allowing them to develop properly is essential in order to build a better future. Today, 149 million children in the world suffer from growth retardation resulting from nutritional difficulties caused by poverty, conflicts and the environmental crisis. An adequate diet, especially in the first 5 years of life, means facilitating the psychological and physical development necessary to develop all of the fundamental abilities to participate in social life. For these reasons, the 2022 edition of the Kairo Looro competition has chosen the selection and construction of a ‘Children’s House’ to accommodate monitoring and assistance activities for children at risk of malnutrition as its objective. This will be our contribution to the second objective of the Sustainable Developments ‘Zero Hunger by 2030’ Goals. Will we succeed?
The architecture of the ‘Children’s House’ will be a space intended to prevent child malnutrition by providing nutritional material, the development of hygiene and healthcare awareness raising programmes, the organisation of paediatric and social care appointments, housing for at-risk patients, and the training of community nurses, who will guide local families on best practice in relation to prevention and nutrition. The design will be constructed in the context of a humanitarian programme, with a team of volunteers and with the participation of the beneficiary community, it should therefore meet some particular construction need.The architecture will need to host the following activities, to which the designed areas must independently correspond or relate to one another depending on the designer’s idea.
