The BE OPEN philanthropic foundation announces the completion of another stage of its global educational initiative within the Inside the Academy strand – the design and architecture institutions ranking system. It has conducted extensive research of the curricula of those institutions providing education in design and architecture in respect to two specific developing regions: South America and Asia.
The initiative was launched in 2013, when the foundation started developing the research methodology through analyzing secondary creative education across Europe, the results of that analysis were presented in September the same year. Switching from these most elaborate and “mature” educational systems to ones of South America and Asia, BE OPEN updated its methods to better fit their peculiarities – the dynamic growth, fast development and outstanding potential in the majority of business and public areas.
