The Denmark-based Henrik Frode Obel Foundation launches a global call for innovative practitioners: 2025 Obel Award Teaching Fellowships are now open for applications. For this third edition, the foundation will grant two teaching fellowships of up to €75,000 and invite prospective fellows from around the world to apply in partnership with a host institution.
Courses, ideally starting in 2026 (or soon thereafter), will revolve around the 2025 Obel Award focus, Ready Made, exploring how to rethink and repurpose resources in the built environment.
The Obel Award Teaching Fellowships complement the Obel Award and its values. The initiative seek to bridge the gap between professional practice and academia to enrich the dialogue and learning around each year’s chosen award theme. By supporting the development of new courses within accredited academic programs, the fellowship brings fresh voices into academia, reinforcing a commitment to innovation and the core mission of the Obel Award, which aims to honour outstanding architectural contributions to social and ecological development globally.
The joint applications (potential fellow and host institution) for the 2025 Obel Award Teaching Fellowships are due at midnight CEST on 1 August 2025.
