Believing that architecture is a fundamental force for transformation and innovation in society, the Lisbon Architecture Triennale is proud to recognise excellence in this field by bestowing a series of three Lisbon Triennale Millennium bcp Awards in each edition, choosing from an international pool of architects.

The Début Award champions emerging talents, encourages innovative thinking as well as new approaches in architecture, and contributes to professional growth. Equally, the nomination-based Achievement Award, formerly known as the Lifetime Achievement, honours the lasting impact of established figures celebrating their significant contributions and integrity within the architectural disciplinary thinking and practice.

Lastly, the Universities Award opens the floor to the next generations of architects, urban planners, and researchers, accepting proposals of various project typologies from faculties across the globe.
