One of the tasks of Architects for Peace is to discuss, promote and acknowledge the work from colleagues and of countries not often featured in mainstream magazines or architectural websites. For example, did you know that Porto Alegre has just inaugurated a magnificent new art gallery designed by Alvaro Siza? Or have you heard about the ambitious bi-centenary projects in Santiago, Chile? What about the numerous projects in Amman, Jordan? It is up to all of us to bring this works to the forefront of our discussions (news can be published in any language).

If you would like to publish an original article or project, send the document to us: editor@architectsforpeace.org Please include the images in the body of the document and also send them attached to the email as separate JPGs.

Thanks to all our new members who have offered to become arch-peace representatives in their city or country. We have been unable to respond so far but you will hear from us soon. By the way, this reminds me that we urgently need a membership person. This position requires knowledge of arch-peace activities, access to private computer and internet and familiarity with some internet based programs. If you are in Melbourne and you could assist with our membership work please contact us ASAP.

Looking forward to your contributions,

Beatriz C. Maturana
Architects for Peace president
