The 2025 Design for Freedom Competition, created in partnership with Grace Farms (@dffmovement @gracefarmsct), intends to challenge students to explore how architectural material research and design can eliminate forced labor in the building materials supply chain.⁠ ⁠ The competition juries are comprised of architecture educators and practitioners who offer a vast range of experience and expertise. These distinguished jurors will assess submissions based on their documentation of materials and processes used in the architectural design that disrupts the forced-labor supply chain, approaches to measuring material transparency to uncover material processes produced by forced labor, and other criteria. ⁠ ⁠ Meet the Jurors⁠ ⁠ Category I: Design Project Jury⁠ ⁠ Kai-Uwe Bergmann (@kaiuwebergmann) - BIG (@big_builds)⁠ Nina Cooke John (@ninacookejohn) - Studio Cooke John Architecture + Design (@studiocookejohn)⁠ Michael J.
