is it necessary to book for the Client Guide seminars/ LGI site visits and study days? if so, where/ how? thank you..
I want to thank all of the staff for their insites and views on the visit to India. I have found the views very ivformatine. The book by Abhijit Vanerjee and Ester Duflo Poor Economics a Radical Rethining of the way to Fight Global Poverty positively lighlights two of the organizations you discuss Pratham and Seva Mandir. I highly recommend the book and would appreciate your take on the book and reactions to its comments on the two organizations.
I would like to congratulate those who organised and spoke at the LI event at Ecobuild. It was a very interesting day. Having read the client guide on the way home I think it is a good document that illustrates and promotes the depth and breadth of Landscape Architecture.
It needs to be in as many clients hands as possible… more copies please!
Thanks
So the seminars aren’t about the new Guide for Clients?
When will the document be available?
