The jury’s work began with site visits, followed by presentations where Site Representatives and experts shared their insights on all competition entries. After evaluating each entry, the jury shortlisted the most promising proposals, which were then forwarded to the Forum of Cities & Juries in Lisbon.
In Lisbon, the jury met again to take part in working groups & discussions, as well as lectures and excursions on the E18 theme Re-sourcing before making their final decisions on the competition results.
