Each thought and each action of human evolution depend on and
belong to the collective experience, although it may crystallize in a single human being. Despite this fact, that knowledge can flourish in specific individuals, we must accept that this form of knowledge is part of our accumulated, collective intelligence and therefore belongs to every human being on the planet. Architecture is an intrinsic part of this accumulated knowledge and should therefore be available to all human beings in our world society, the world society being the very nest of this formidable knowledge. From this perspective, architecture is a human right. 100 years ago BAUHAUS was built (Weimar April 1st 1919) and the multidisciplinary and social reformatory aim of its pedagogy.
“Architecture is science, art and crafts at the service of society“still rings beautifully and with 70 years since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was established (Paris, December 10th 1948), in which the basic principles of coexisting for every human being was stablished.
Today, in 2019, we are in the position to join these two key human declarations in a Manifesto which sings it out loud
‘‘Architecture is a human right’’
