Living Village Design Competition
Registration Deadline: Friday, Dec 10, 2021
Submission Deadline: Friday, Dec 17, 2021
"The Living Village Design Competition is a collaboration with the SA Housing Authority, Citylab and the Australian Institute of Architects. [...] A site in Unley, South Australia is being used as an example location to create innovative ideas for mixed-use housing developments that foster the creation of a living village grounded in affordable housing but deeply connected to innovation, environmental sustainability and the local community they are located in."
Call for Journal of Architectural Education (JAE) Fellows
Register/Submit Deadline: Monday, Dec 20, 2021
"The JAE and ACSA recognize the critical need to support the scholarship of architectural educators and researchers who face and continue to encounter systemic and structural obstacles, including racism, within academia and beyond. As a step toward this commitment, we have established one-year Fellowships and online publication commitments for cohorts of two to four architectural educators, designers, and researchers per year who self-identify as Black, Native/Indigenous, and/or as members of groups that are and have been historically and systemically marginalized and excluded, and whose academic labor is precarious, including adjunct, lecturer, and other non-tenure track faculty. [...] A key component of the JAE Fellows program is to help shift conversations and systems around conventional forms of review and assessment, and to productively unsettle exclusive systems and platforms of scholarship, design, research, and creative practice."
