Prizes
This year, in honor of our 10th anniversary, we’ve assembled a group of 100 of the most compelling social design practitioners of the last decade. A project we’re calling The Social Design Circle. These are practices which have captivated and inspired us over the years, as we’ve built a global community of visionaries, activists and game changers. Each Circle member will receive an honorarium and an award, and as the year progresses, we’ll be highlighting their practices on our website.
Gyaw Gyaw is proud to be recognised as one of these.

SEMINAR: Crossing landscape and disciplinary boundaries: Migration, democracy and social justice at times of global environmental and social uncertainties.
Line Ramstad Norwegian Landscape architect, founder of the NGO Gyaw Gyaw that focuses on sustainable architecture and democracy in practice.
Title:
Gyaw Gyaw – Sustainable architecture, local development and democracy in practice.
Abstract of talk:
Gyaw Gyaw was established in 2009 and have since become respected both as designers and construction workers by their fellow and neighboring villagers along the Thai-Burma border.
With a locally adjusted focus on sustainable architecture, climate, landscape and cultural adapted designs and an inclusive process towards the projects realisation as the main goal, they have built schools, dormitories, toilets and other community buildings for and with local communities.
They strongly emphasize the running their organisation in a democratic manner by putting focus on equality, human and workers rights, and group decision making in an effort to be an example of what democracy in practice can be.
