The annual Landscape Institute (LI) conference takes place at the University of Sheffield on 3 and 4 March, the IHBC will be showcasing the work of the Institute and its members at a stand at the event, which this year focuses on ‘Beauty, function and sustainability in an age of austerity- How can we create beautiful, sustainable landscapes in an age of austerity?’
The Landscape Institute writes:
The Landscape Institute’s 2016 Annual Conference and CPD event will address the highly topical question of how landscape architects can continue to create beautiful, sustainable landscapes at a time when budget constraints, particularly in the public sector, could lead to a reductive focus on function.
The event will be held on Thursday 3 and Friday 4 March hosted in Sheffield in partnership with the University of Sheffield’s Department of Landscape. This two-day CPD event will include thought-provoking talks from a distinguished roster of speakers (see below for details) and a selection of breakout CPD sessions on specific and practical topics to hone your skills and knowledge. Site visits on Friday will enable you to see some of the most interesting recent landscape projects in and around Sheffield, while the dinner and drinks reception will give you ample opportunity to network and socialise.
