Shaikha Mai bint Mohammed Al Khalifa, President of the Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities, has been named as a member to the steering committee for the 2022 Aga Khan Award for Architecture (AKAA). As a member of the committee, Shaikha Mai will help select an independent master jury which, in turn, selects the award recipients from the nominated projects. In 2019, her project, the Revitalisation of Muharraq, was one of the six winners of the prized architecture award. The AKAA is one of the discipline’s top honours and brings with it a prize of $1 million.
