Throughout history, memorials have been an important way to reflect on this loss and allow a community to grieve and come together in solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>Covid-19 has effected every community and culture a little differently. In order to reflect this reality, each memorial should be intimate and personal, reflecting the local context and the impact this pandemic has had&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Think hard about what scale you will tackle. Will you create a memorial for your town, city, state or country?&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>This design competition was inspired by Brazilian architect Leonardo Dias who turned his Coronavirus Design Competition entry into a real project and raised funds to construct a memorial for his town.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Submission deadline: November 2, 2020 (11:59 PM PST)<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Winners announced by November 26, 2020 (11:59 PM PST)<\/p>\n<p>See more on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archdaily.com\/945175\/covid-19-community-memorial-design-competition\">Covid-19 Community Memorial Design Competition<\/a>,<\/p>\n<p><u>See more on <\/u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.designingbuildings.co.uk\/wiki\/Conservation_wiki\">IHBC\u2019s Conservation Wiki<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more on HESPR and how to become a HESPR member see <u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/hespr\/\">hespr.ihbc.org.uk<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n<p><u><a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/HESPR_flyer_2017-e1517674730111.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-16895\" src=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/HESPR_flyer_2017-e1517674730111.png\" alt=\"HESPR flyer 2017\" width=\"100\" height=\"142\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/hespr\/docs\/HESPR-A5-leaflet.pdf\">Download the HESPR flyer<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n<p>For a free promotion of your tendering opportunities and work needs to the IHBC\u2019s HESPR members, please send details and links to Joanna at <u><a href=\"mailto:contact@ihbc.org.uk\">contact@ihbc.org.uk<\/a><\/u>, as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Tenders can also be advertised for a fee with <em><u><a href=\"http:\/\/ihbconline.co.uk\/jobsetc\/\">IHBC Jobs etc<\/a><\/u><\/em>, including a targeted email to 2000+ recipients as well as full coverage on our NewsBlog alerts and social platforms (membership and followers c.18,000) and websites with c. 290,000 visits a month.
