The 14th edition of the competition was attended by some 45 European localities from 13 different countries. In January 2018, the City of Tubize was declared the winner of the competition with a project presented by the Portuguese architect Mr Humberto Pereira.
This Europan project will take place on the site of the former Forges de Clabecq, which is quite symbolical.
This project will eventually include:
