Renowned Pakistani architect Yasmeen Lari has declined the 2025 Wolf Prize in architecture, citing Israeli actions in Gaza.

The Israel-based award, established in 1978, recognizes scientists and artists for their exceptional achievements and contributions to goodwill. Lari’s choice represents a significant stand against this backdrop.

Lari, Pakistan’s first registered female architect, has consistently advocated for innovative design and social responsibility. Her decision to decline the Yasmeen Lari Wolf Prize is a testament to her principles. Renowned worldwide for her efforts to support the underprivileged and preserve cultural heritage, she chose to forgo this honor due to ethical concerns.

Her accolades include the Royal Gold Medal for Architecture from the British monarch in 2023 and the Jane Drew Prize in 2020. Lari’s work encompasses both impressive architectural designs and humanitarian initiatives. Notably, her book, “The Dual City: Karachi During the Raj” (1996), is an essential resource for understanding Karachi’s colonial history.

Lari pioneered conservation efforts in Karachi, emphasizing its historical significance. Her work has inspired both historians and officials. She chose justice over recognition by turning down the Yasmeen Lari Wolf Prize, solidifying her global influence.
