Lisbon Triennale Millennium bcp Début is awarded after an independent selection that goes through two distinct phases. There is also a call for self-proposals. At the same time, the Triennale invites dozens of international architects to nominate up to three names each that they consider worthy of the award. Both the self-proposals and the nominations submit the same materials for evaluation. The set of proposals is made available to the jury, whose composition includes seven personalities from various continents and who select the list of finalists as well as the winner or the winner.
