The Activism Award 2024 has just been announced, crowning London-based Studio Bark as its overall winner, for the practice’s work in response to the climate crisis, and towards inclusivity in construction, and regenerative building processes. Argentine initiative The Colectivo de Arquitectas (CdA) from Buenos Aires, received a high commendation for its protest against the redevelopment of public land.
The top gong was drawn from a six-strong shortlist of nominees chosen for their role in taking action and championing change in the field when it comes to key, current issues within the built environment. The annual accolade, which is organised by the digital architecture platform Archiboo and supported this year by Heatherwick Studio, recognises work covering topics such as the use of public land, safety on our streets, the climate emergency and gender and disability rights.
