“Initiating projects” is a symposium organised by AJAC (Agrupació de Joves Arquitectes de Catalunya) as the coordinator of Wonderland in Spain, that tries to generate a debate about “how and when to start a project” from the prespective of young architects, both nacional and international.

The objective is to establish a critical approach towards architectural practice for the young architects collective and also to establish synergies on an international level that define the cultural identity of the profession.
