The chief editor at Koozarch Enrique Aureng Silva invites us to imagine an Olympic Stadium: the 45 spatial researchers and practitioners with manifestos in their hands, on the six lanes of the UIA track Sustainable futures - Leave no one behind: Climate Adaptation, Rethinking Resources, Resilient Communities, Health, Inclusivity, and Partnerships for Change.

The Manifesto Relay reflects the architectural commitment to confront the ecological and sociopolitical crisis, forming radical visions to change the built environment and designing a new glossary to describe new ideas. Striving to strengthen collective awareness, the first worldwide edition pushes the boundaries of the profession and builds up a fundamental platform for continuous critical discourse.
