All the designers of the submitted graduation projects can apply to participate in the Archiprix International Workshop in Addis Ababa in the ten days before the award ceremony.The designers of the best graduation projects can participate in an international design workshop the week before the award ceremony.

Suspension of partnerships in Russia Solidarity with Ukraine
Archiprix is shocked by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and empathizes with all those affected by it. We decided to suspend our partnerships in the Russian Federation and Belarus until further notice, in line with the urgent appeal of our government. We wish to express our solidarity with the people in Ukraine, and we embrace those in the academic communities in Russia who are speaking out against the invasion while courageously continuing to dedicate themselves to peace, dialogue and open cooperation. more
