The Landscape Institute (LI) Elections have been completed, and the new term for the Board and Council commences on 1 July 2023.
We can confirm that the External Independent Elections Officer did not receive any complaints before the 9th of June deadline.
A full of list elected members can be found here.
As a membership body, we look forward to continuing our work to protect, conserve and enhance the natural and built environment for the public benefit while promoting the art and science of landscape practice.
We are approaching a century since the founding of the Landscape Institute, and we are a time where the landscape is more universally regarded, with more government action across the world in helping to create sustainable environments and combatting climate change.”
The Board and Council will be focused on delivering the Landscape Institute’s mission and vision in promoting and representing the landscape profession, protecting and enhancing the natural and built environment, and supporting all landscape practitioners.
The Institute is proud to have been able to support and lead campaigns including the recent Connect People, Place and Nature as well as collaborating with partner organisations.
Recently, we collaborated with partners to launch the Landscape Character Assessment Database and add more to our roster of technical resources.
After many years, the LI has succeeded in shifting government policy to mandate sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) for future developments as part of their Climate Action Plan.
In addition, the Institute joined four other industry associations to sign an equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) charter late last year, reinforming our commitment to working towards a more diverse and inclusive industry through the sharing of work and good practice. Through diverse perspectives and as a professional membership body, we can facilitate natural and built environments that as many people as possible will be able to benefit from.
We recently announced the newest Fellow (FLI) and Chartered Members (CMLI) graduates and it is pleasing to see so many succeed. We are currently accepting entries across the sector for our 30th anniversary Awards.
