9 Before

10 20 years of ramming the wall: State architect? What for? Do you want Albert Speer back?! (end of conversation)

11 Actions during last 20 years (by EAA): - discussions about the policy and SA among architects - writing the first state architecture policy document (est. 2002) - meeting politicians, ministers and other key persons - writing articles, organizing conferences - hiring the best and most expensive lawyer in the state - composing the state architect institution s draft 2008, 2011, preparing the draft for the government action plan 2012, 2014, meeting again politicians, ministers and other key persons - the document reached the government but failed So far the conclusion has been: NO POLITICAL INTEREST BUT there are also positive changes: in 2007 the ministry of culture established the architecture and design adviser position. At the moment architect PhD Indrek Rünkla holds this position.

25 Notes from Leo van Broeck (Flemish government architect): a small resume on the key points that according to me are important when installing an architectural policy and a government architect (GA). Tasks: The GA does NOT design anything. No decision power, only advisory. He and his team advise and assist, communicate, comment, stimulate. Helping public authorities (national, local, municipalities) to become good architectural clients. This means jumping on board very early in the process, even before the site or the programme are fixed. Organise juries that are politically independent and where the majority are experts in architecture, urban design, landscaping. International collaboration and communication. Advise the different ministers and administrations. Best positioned independent of only one minister, but working as a transversal task force for ALL the ministries.

26 Profile: Must have built, and his/her projects are recognised as a reference for quality. Best also experience in teaching, in policies, etc. For the first one: take an Estonian, the successors could also be foreigners. Job: full time or 80% but not less. The GA is appointed for only one term of maximum 5 years. This can be prolonged with a number of months to bridge the gap when finding a successor takes more time, but the BA can never get a second term (in order to avoid the instalment of a 'dictatorship'). Team: minimum 4 to 5 people, they stay in office an keep on working for the consecutive GA's. This is very important to guarantee the continuity of policies over the different GA's and governments!
