Welcome to the Ramallah Science and Technology City (R.S.T.C) International Design Competition

R.S.T.C aims to establish itself as a landmark in the city of Ramallah and across Palestine as an iconic and major tourist destination, attracting thousands of visitors annually. It will change the stigma and stereotype that scientific knowledge is difficult, and only those who dedicate their lives to it can understand it. It will accomplish that through exhibitions, multimedia productions, community programs, and much more that will target children, youth, and adults of all professions. This project will be the first of its kind in Palestine.

The competition is open internationally to all creative architects and architecture companies with unique ideas for city landmarks and is conducted as a single stage competition in compliance with the regulations of the Engineering Association. The output of this competition includes the submission of a master plan, concept note, 3D images, floor plans, spatial configuration, and others. Moreover, the competition offers a prize of 6,000 USD for the selected first place winner, 4,000 USD for second place, and 2,000 USD for third place, in addition to two honourable mentions.

The submission deadline for the first stage is 01.06.2025 by 14:00 p.m. Jerusalem time.
