ECA has a strong connection with the Venice Biennale of Architecture. This year's theme will be the "Laboratory of the Future" with a focus on Africa, decarbonisation , climate justice and architecture's ability to negotiate between and across boundaries in a world that is beginning the feel the effects of climate change.

Sustainability will be integral to all future proposals in architecture. Early-years professionals and students will need to build it in to the heart of their practice. In response, ECA is offering a scholarship in 2023 to participants presenting the best project ideas for our "Sustainability Competition". The prize is a full scholarship for our "Sustainable Healthy Cities: building for the future" course taking place in Venice on June 19-30, 2023.
