Landscape Institute Climate Change Conferences
29th February 2008
Following on from the success of our annual conference last November, the Landscape Institute will be holding two further conferences on the theme of climate change.
In partnership with Natural England, these conferences are designed to develop further thinking on the crucial role that landscape architects can play in mitigating and adapting to climate change.
In addition to plenary sessions covering the Climate Change Bill, the Landscape Institute’s Climate Change Policy (due for completion this spring) and local case studies outlining the success of landscape-scale approaches to adaptation, there will be a series of workshops for delegates to choose from that relate climate change to the four other policy themes that the Institute will be focusing on in 2008/09:
- Housing
- Green infrastructure
- Community engagement
- Healthy living in the landscape.
The conferences will take place in Bristol on 25 April and Leeds on 23 May.
