Coastal Infrastructures Fuji
Prijsvraag
Coastal island communities are especially vulnerable to climate change. Stronger cyclones, rising sea levels, warming waters, biodiversity loss, prolonged droughts, and major flood events threaten their existence.
Marou Village in the Yasawa archipelago of Fiji is one such community.
The residents of Marou Village and LAGI have partnered to co-create a unique design competition. Together we invite you to design a work of art in the landscape that will supply clean and reliable electricity and drinking water to the coastal village’s 67 households, support tourism, and help to build a sustainable future for generations to come.
Can demonstrating sustainable and resilient energy and water systems with Marou Village help establish a precedent for other communities to follow?
Two winning teams will each be provided with
$100,000 USD to advance their design proposal and build a functioning prototype of their idea in Fiji.
Dozens of submissions will be included in a full-color hardbound book with wide distribution and exhibited throughout Fiji.
