"The Aga Khan Award for Architecture has a triennial prize fund of US$ 500,000, making it the world’s largest architectural award. The rigor of its nomination and selection process has also made it, in the eyes of many observers, the world’s most important architectural prize. Awarded projects have ranged from the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur to a primary school in Burkina Faso.

"During the current cycle of the Award, 343 projects were presented for consideration, and 27 were reviewed on site by international experts. An independent Master Jury selected nine Award recipients that are notable for having attained the highest standards of architectural excellence while reflecting the values of their specific environments." – Aga Khan Award Press Release
