Looking back on twenty years of Europan in the Netherlands, the prize winners of the first editions explain what Europan has meant for them. The architect Madeleine Maaskant goes into the developments of the European city in the last few decades in more depth. Maurits Klaren presents his vision of the future of Europan, and the journalist Kaye Geipel examines the cultural, social and professional significance of Europan in an essay.
Every two years some twenty European countries jointly organise Europan, an idea competition for architects below the age of 40 in the field of architecture, urban design and landscape.
