Collective Landscape Futures are a series of three roundtable discussions exploring the future of landscape and urban practice. Held as conversations between students, graduates, tutors and guests to discuss the relationship between landscape and the interconnected issues of ethics, belonging, care and the economic and environmental crises.
These discussions have been set up so we can collectively interrogate our role as landscape practitioners and explore ways of designing fairer worlds. This is the third year these events have been running and more information can be found here and here. They are free to attend and are held in the Stephen Lawrence Gallery at Stockwell Street.
