Your Feedback on ECOWEEK 2012 in the Middle East

'Goodmorning Team, I enjoyed meeting you all, watching you work and learn together. Thank you all for the effort, the enthusiasm, the commitment and a wonderful week together. I hope we can stay in touch and maybe even meet again at the next ECOWEEK.' D.P.

'I wish to thank you, on behalf of my team, for an educational and creative week.' M.A.A.

'Thanks for a great event. Again I am very honored by the invitation. You have all done a great job. And always nice to be with you - and also great to be able to laugh together. I have enjoyed the many good social relationships and academic talk with both students and colleagues. Those are good memories to take home. I would be delighted to plan ahead.' J. J.


'Thanks for everything. I visited the workshop groups this morning and was really fascinated by the work and the spirit. Have a good presentation day at Holon!' N.M.

'I am still overwelmed with the amaizing challenging week. I am so happy with my workshop partner. Ii just couldnt ask for a better partner! It was click at first email exchange. Continued naturally to the workshop, but at the same time to friendship. The week was refreshing and educating for me as much as hard and exhausting... It was very surprising to see the quick development of the project. Last semester our students did not get to that level! Credits to students and young architects in the group who cooperated very nicely with us and each other. I am sure more than after my last participation that a web of friendships and profesional co-operation is forming as the ECOWEEK mision evolves. I will say that thanks to ECOWEEK it is proven again and again that changes can be made. Step by step. That minds can open for rethinking. That young and fresh minds can offer a vision often far more accurate to than us profesionals somtimes offer... I am very proud for taking part in this ECOWEEK and look forward for future editions and would love to take part.' O.Y.

'Thank you for giving us the opportunity to join the ECOWEEK in the Middle East - again I was amazed how seriously the student take the task. Incredible results for such a short time - congratulation! Furthermore it was a pleasure to meet new people. I am sure our institutions can cooperate on a much larger scale. Look forward to it all - ECOWEEK CPH 2013! We will keep in touch.' C.S.T.
