The XIIth European Urban and Regional Planning Awards: call is OPEN

Airports, Cities and Urban development

Airports, Cities and urban development
The European Council of Town Planners considers the importance of Airports Cities in the development of metropolitan areas since the beginning of the 20th century.
Aviation and urban planning have developed in parallel over the last century and play together a major role in the future of human society.
Both can be considered in their role of polarization of human activities and planetary diffusion of culture and local specificities.

Through the 12th European Urban and Regional Planning Awards, the European Council of Spatial Planners wishes to reward the best projects, realized or in progress, research and prospective that show how Spatial Planning integrates airports in the development of cities, metropolises and regions.

The European Urban and Regional Planning Award allows the European Council of Spatial Planners to promote the concrete implementation of the Charter of European Planning approved in April 2013 in Barcelona.

LE XIIe GRAND PRIX DE L’URBANISME EUROPEEN 2017 - 2018: l'appel aux projets est OUVERT

Aéroports, Villes et Developpement Urbain

Villes Aéroports
Le Conseil Européen des Urbanistes considère l’importance des Villes Aéroports dans le développement des aires métropolitaines depuis le début du 20è siècle.

L’aviation et l’urbanisme se sont développés en parallèle depuis 1 siècle et jouent ensemble un rôle majeur pour l’avenir de la société humaine.
L’un et l’autre peuvent être considérés dans leur rôle de polarisation des activités humaines et de diffusion planétaire des cultures et des spécificités locales.

A travers le 12è Grand Prix de l’Urbanisme Européen, le Conseil Européen des Urbanistes souhaite récompenser les meilleurs projets, réalisés ou en cours de réalisation, recherches et prospectives qui montrent comment l’urbanisme intègre les aéroports dans le développement des villes, métropoles et régions.

Le Grand Prix de l’Urbanisme Européen permet au Conseil Européen des Urbanistes de valoriser la mise en application concrète pour les territoires de la Charte de l’Urbanisme Européen qu’il a approuvé en avril 2013 à Barcelone.

Taking a holistic approach, stressing the importance of Spatial planning, the joint responsibility of politics and society for the built environment is stressed and a European policy of achieving high-quality Baukultur is called for.
