About the Competition
African Parks, in partnership with the Government of South Sudan; Ministry of Wildilfe Conservation & Tourism (MWCT), manages Badingilo National Park as part of its mission to restore and protect Africa’s natural heritage. Covering over 10,000 km², Badingilo hosts the largest land mammal wildlife migration on the planet and will act as the operational hub for several national parks in the region.
Headquarters location (coordinates): 5° 6‘ 26.9094“ N, 31° 54‘ 11.6676“ E, within Badingilo National Park

We invite architects and final-year architecture/construction students worldwide to design a ground-level headquarters complex that will accommodate administrative, residential, research, and visitor functions. This will be a model of sustainable, affordable, climate-adapted architecture using earth-based materials to withstand both the extreme heat of the dry season and the heavy rains of the wet season.
