The International Archive of
Women in Architecture invites architects, scholars, professionals,
students, and researchers to honor IAWA founder Professor Milka T.
Bliznakov through research on women in architecture and related
design fields. This research, in concert with the preservation efforts of
the IAWA, is intended to help fill the current void in historical
knowledge about women’s professional achievements. The prize
is designed to facilitate in-person research in the IAWA archive and produce
scholarship related to the work of women who shaped the designed environment,
thus preserving for posterity a record of their achievements.
