The AURA Award aims to identify, celebrate, and share outstanding urban renewal practices across Asia. We advocate not for revolutionary demolition and rebuilding, but for intelligent and compassionate evolution; we focus not only on the reshaping of space, but also on the synergistic coexistence of economic vitality, social equity, environmental resilience, and the well-being of the people.

We call upon urban managers, asset operators, developers, designers, artists, and scholars to actively submit your outstanding projects. Let's showcase to the world those stories that illuminate our streets, warm our hearts, and inspire the future.
