"Today, we are proud to launch the third edition of the Sharjah Architecture Triennial," El Mousfy announced. "This marks the beginning of an exciting chapter where we delve deeply into conversations around architecture, urbanism, and city life."

This year’s edition introduces a dynamic curatorial team, led by anthropologist and curator Vyjayanthi Rao and associate curator Tau Tavengwa. El Mousfy expressed strong confidence in their ability to bring fresh energy and critical perspectives to the event. "We are very excited about their participation. With their engagement, research into urbanism, and Rao’s anthropological background, this edition will carry real boldness and vigor," she said.

El Mousfy emphasised to “Sharjah 24” that Sharjah Architecture Triennial  will focus on immersive engagement with the city and the complexities of urban life. "This edition will be very much engaged with the city and city life," she noted, underlining a strong connection between the Triennial’s themes and Sharjah’s evolving urban landscape.

The Triennial is expected to draw attention from global and regional audiences, continuing Sharjah’s growing influence in the cultural and architectural dialogue.
