In August 2019, CNN published an article listing the top cities that are prone to excessive flooding due to rise in sea levels. Lagos was one of them. One solution, which was mentioned by Andrew Yang during the American Democratic debate in 2019, is to move to higher land.
This is what has led to the theme of the first Eddy Eguavoen Foundation Architecture Competition, Lagos: City on Water. According to the founder of the foundation, Mr. Odaro Eguavoen, an architect, contestants are encouraged to respond to the threat of sea-level rise and the project must make significant use of water space, whether floating, submerged and suspended over water.
Entries for the competition can be completed via the website, www.voenassociates.com/foundation; which will close by August 10.Twenty finalists will be shortlisted while first to third position winners will win a cash prize of 700 euro, 400 euro and 200 euro respectively.
