European Project Semester project 3

1. Context The city of Antwerp wants to create an Islamic centre that addresses the whole
Muslim community in Antwerp and would be an attractive alternative for the current “informal”
mosques. This should be a place where Muslim and non-Muslim citizens (young and old)
can meet, play and learn from each other.
Join us to empower the brainstorm on the strategy for this process, together with the wide
diversity of stakeholders in Antwerp: identify the tangible needs, objectives, possible
threats/opportunities and the best way to ‘sell’ this concept to all citizens of Antwerp.
There is also an architectural design dimension included in this project.
