Mayor of London Design Challenge to Inspire Young Londoners
The Mayor of London is partnering with MOBIE to launch a design challenge for young Londoners this Autumn!
Are your school or college students in London interested in designing a beautiful, affordable and sustainable community for future living for Londoners? The Design Future London challenge will bring the national curriculum to life and inspire a new generation of Londoners to learn about the built environment and the varied and exciting career opportunities that exist in the sector.
The challenge will invite young people to develop proposals for a new village in the Royal Docks, set around four key themes central to London’s recovery from COVID-19:
- Improving Air Quality
- Sustainable Transport
- Affordable Housing
- Green Energy
Introducing the challenge, Sadiq Khan the Mayor of London said:
"I am passionate about ensuring that young Londoners get the support they need to fulfil their potential. I hope this challenge will help them to develop new skills and inspire more of them to join our world-leading built environment sector.I have met many young Londoners during my time as Mayor and am always inspired by their energy, dynamism and creativity. I know they will have a lot to bring to this challenge and George and I look forward to reviewing the entries when the time comes."
