For the first time this year, in FRANCE, will be held a National Day of Architecture in Classes (schools). It is organized by 'Le Réseau des Maisons de l'Architecture'. It will start in November with a Test Area 'Pays de la Loire' to be extended to all regions in 2017. The aim is to promote and diffuse contemporary French architecture, to discover the many projects completed in France by architects, to investigate contemporary architecture, to discover projects within a region & to promote the quality within a specific territory. Architecture being a cultural expression. The 33 Architecture Centres Network combine their efforts on a site to collate the wealth and interest of contemporary architecture within their region at a national level.
On October 20, 2015, Fleur Pellerin (ex Minister of Culture and Communication) went to the Graduate school of architecture of Paris Belleville to present her national strategy for the architecture. She was wishing 'to give a increased role to the architects '. The architecture represents 10 % of cultural jobs vacancies and 8 % of the turnover of the cultural sector today, so that the importance of this sector to be better recognized. Members of parliament so adopted about fifteen arrangements concerning the relation of the architecture in the heritage and in the town and country planning, the recognition of the role of the councils of architecture in town planning and the environment, the constructed properties and the education.
This national strategy, underlined Fleur Pellerin 'comes to recognize how much the talent of the architects is essential, at this crucial time, to answer the challenges that share all the French people : the housing, the energy transition, the improvement of the living environment, the ageing of the people and the stones '.
Six main roads of the strategy :
* To raise awareness and to develop the knowledge of the architecture by the general public and all the public actors
* To Take into account the architectural inheritance of the XXth and XXIth centuries and to develop the architectural intervention to value and transform the existing built frame
