Juries

Structure of the juries

The jury’s decisions are final in compliance with the Europan rules.
Before beginning to work the jury receives recommendations from the European Association.

The jury meets in 2 separate sessions at different times:

First session

At the beginning of this session, the jury appoints one of its members as chairman and agrees on its working method. Sites representatives can be integrated to this jury level.
The jury then studies the projects that do not comply with the rules and decide whether or not to disqualify them.
It later on assesses the projects on their conceptual content and the degree of innovation according to the Europan 13 theme and shortlists 10 to 20% of the submitted projects

Second session

During the second session, the jury examines –on its own and independently– the shortlisted projects and points out the winners, runners-up and special mentions. The jury can assess projects on basis of: the relationship between concept and site; the relevance to the questions raised by the topic and in particular to the issues of sustainable development; the relevance of their programme to the general brief for their specific site; the potential for integration into a complex urban process; the innovative nature of the proposed public spaces; the consideration given to the connection between housing and other functions; the architectural and technical qualities.
The jury finally writes a report giving the reasons for the choice of winners, runners-up and special mentions in relation to the requirements of the competition and the concerned sites.

Each country budget holds the equivalent of a Winner’s and a Runner-Up’s prize per site. Still, each entry is judged on its sole merits and the winning teams are not chosen on basis of an equal distribution between sites – the jury can therefore distribute prizes among entries up to its will and decide not to award all the prizes. In this case, the reasons shall be made public.

The jury may single out projects for Special Mention. These projects are recognised by the jury as presenting innovative ideas or insights, yet not sufficiently suitable for the site to be awarded a winner or runner-up status. The authors of such projects do not receive any reward.

The jury can replace any winning project disqualified after verification of the validation of participation.

 

DISCLOSURE OF NAMES

The projects assessed by the experts and juries are anonymous.

Once the decision of results is taken, the jury reveals the names of the winners, runners-up and special mentions. This operation is done through the European database, which automatically links the codes of the projects and composition of teams.

 

ANNOUNCEMENT OF RESULTS

After disclosure of the names of the winning teams and following any adjustments to rankings that may prove necessary, the national secretariats ratify the decisions and disclose the names of all the participants.

The European secretariat publishes the complete list of results online on December 4th, 2015.
