Open Call: Floating Refugee Village

Premise
With rising sea levels and intensifying climate events, coastal populations worldwide face unprecedented displacement, creating a new generation of climate migrants. Traditional land-based refugee solutions are often temporary, resource-intensive, and fail to provide long-term dignity or stability. This competition challenges architects and designers to radically rethink humanitarian architecture by proposing a new paradigm: a buoyant, self-reliant community. The Floating Refugee Village is envisioned not as a temporary camp, but as a permanent, adaptable, and thriving habitat that harmonizes with its aquatic environment, offering a resilient future for those displaced by our changing planet.
