ANNEX I I D-2

REPORT OF THE FIRST VICE PRESIDE NT ROBIN D GAY

It is a p l ea sur e for me to pre sent my first report to you as F irs t Vice President. R eg re tt abl y I was not able to be p res en t in M u n ic h to co mmence my duties, but rest assured I was well b ri efe d by Derek Lovejoy and President Zvi Miller has since made sure that I have had a sound initiation into IFLA affairs. Whe n I was asked to follow up the results of the p re - M u n i c h q u e s t i o n n a i r e it made me aware of the very great task IFLA has in c o m m u n i c a t i n g wit h its International membership. This e f f or t b r o u g h t me into personal contact with the m a j o r i t y of IFLA m e m b e r s thr ou g ho ut the regions and there is no doubt that the a pp oi n t e d de le gat es in each cou ntry are the vital links in the c o m m u n i c a t i o n chain. Re g re tta bly not all countries r e sp o nd e d to the q u e s t i o n n a i r e and w h ile the results have been helpful we m u s t be cautious in ma ki n g decisio ns on issues w i t h o u t full consultation. As IFLA grows it m a y be increasingly ne ces s ar y to rely on this form of c om mu n ic a t io n to aid decision making. By re fer r in g to past results we are able to look forward wi t h a g rea ter sense of pur pose and I thank those who have co nt r i b u t e d c o n s t r u c t i v e l y to this pa rt ic u la r task. I w o u l d like to co mme nt b ri efl y on the role of the International C o m mi t te e s w h i c h p o te n t i a l l y provide one of the m o s t important o p p o r t u n i t i e s w i t h i n IFLA. A l th o u g h a great deal of excell ent w o r k has been achi ev ed over the last per i od there is some concern that the commit te e structure is not fulfilling its full potential. On this basis a d i s c u s s i o n report was pr e pa r ed for Ex ec uti ve co nsideration. Some of the concerns and possible new directions will be ex pl o re d at the B ud a pe s t meetings. A new committee on Roads has been es t a b l i s h e d w i th John Bright of C ol o r a d o USA as Chairman. There are ma n y ot her tasks w h i c h have received attention. Not the least of these has been the di ffi cul t one of conside rin g how IFLAs e l e c te d officers can undertake their duties on the ex t r e m e l y limited funds available. In many countries the pr o f e s s i o n is still in its infancy and these areas remote from the traditional seats of landscape arc hitecture need both m ora l support and pr act ica l help. IFLA mus t continue to show balance and tolerance as the less viable groups in each regi on struggle to survive. It is only in this way that IFLA will e nco ura ge full inv olv eme nt and a balan ced internat ion al structure in the years ahead.

RE PO R T OF THE V I C E - P R E S I D E N T OF THE C E N TR A L REGION Sveinung

Skjold

A f t e r an unexpect ed, but ex tremely pleasant invitation, it was made po ss i bl e for me to particip ate in IFLA's seminar in Egypt in April 198*1 sponso red by the Aga Khan Award for A rch it e ct ur e . The stay in Egypt provided me with the y e a r ’s s t ro n ge st i mp r es si ons as a member of IFLA's Ex. C. Included were ine igh ts into the ex tr e me l y large eco logical problems to be found in c o n n e c t i o n with Cairo's strong popu lat ion growth, c o ng e s t i o n and wide distribution. That IFLA, as an o rg a ni z at i on , is concern ed w i t h these problems was no ti c ea b le on the local level. The s e m i n a r was also an important event, and a support; for ou r c o l l e a g u e s in Egypt, who have significant and d i ff i cu l t tasks bef ore them. ^ur i ng 8 3 / 8 ^ I have been oc c upi ed w it h setting u p an open " u np r et e n t i o u s " IFLA a r r a n ge m en t as a cooperative project bet we e n the Nor di c lands» Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden and Norway. The idea has been welcomed, and the event is in the pr oc e s s of being developed. At the o u t s e t the dates were somewhat o p t i m i s t i c a l l y set for the s u m m e r of 198*1. A f t e r a more realistic evaluation, d u ri n g a n u m b e r of t ele pho ne conferences and meetings, the date has now been set for August 1986 C op e n h a g e n theme 1 "New Life for the Cities." A w o r k i n g co mm i t t e e has been established, and pre par a ti o ns are m a k i n g progress. A c o m pe ti t io n is to be arranged in c o n n e c t i o n w i t h the event w h i c h will appeal as we l i to the y o u n g e r la nds c ap e a r ch i te c ts in the central region. It has also been my pleasure to S te er ing Committee, w h i c h meets

meet with the yearly.

joirt Nordic

T o g e t h e r wi t h my Nordic colle agu es I have felt it ap pro pri ate to support our F i n n i s h colleagues in their demand that the n a t i o n ' s only- p r o f e s s o r of our pro fe s si o n should have an e du c a t i o n as a landscape ar chi tec t — not just as an architect, as is no w the case. This case will probably be present ed to the G.C. in B u d a pe s t, a nd my con viction is that our F i n n i s h c ol l e a g u e s should be g iv en full supprt in the case. A tight bud ge t has made it n e c e s s a r y to refrain from seeking out o t h e r a c t i v i t i e s this year. I find it n atu ral to try to d e v e l o p and pri or it i ze b et t e r contact bet ween IFLA and ou r older, and wel l-e sta bli she d, m e mb e r groups in the comming year. T h i s is in a d di tio n to If LA's involvement in Africa, w h i c h also must be expanded and intensified if we are to have some hope of seeing positive results wit hi n a reasonable period.

INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS Annual Report 1983-84 Vice President of the Western Region Vi ncent J. Bellafiore This year as Regional Vice President of IFLA, the following: 1. 2. 3. 1.

I was involved in

The establis hme nt of professional associations in the We ste rn Region. The formulation of a graduate pr ogram in landscape architecture in Saudi Arabia. The Environmental Plan ni ng and Design Assistance Team

THE ES T AB LI SHM ENT OF PR O FES SIO NAL AS SO CIATIONS REGION

IN THE WESTERN

As you are well aware of, Columbia, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Canada and the United States are the only countries which have national associations and are members of IFLA. Much work needs to be done in the We stern Region to establi sh the pro f es s io n of landscape architecture. This year we have made some progress in the following areas: a.

I have been cor re sp o nd i ng with Geo ffe ry Ramsey, individual member from Barbados, with the intent of establishing a joint national association among Carribean Islands. Mr. Ramsey feels that government ministries, local institutes of architects and engineers, and hort icu ltu ris ts may be good sources for locating landscape architects interested in es ta blishing a joint national association. Since cor re spo ndi ng with Mr. Ramsey, he has moved from Canada back to Barbados and I have had di f fic ult y contacting him in Barbados. I have made several un su ccessful attempts to reach him by telephone.

Mr. Gerard Frontin has made application for individual me mbership from Trin id ad and will ho pef ull y be approved at the Budapest Grand Council meeting.

President Miller and I have been in contact with Luis Toskano concerning individual membe rsh ip from Peru.

Mr. Alfredo Boyd III has requested individual membership from the Republic of Panama. Hopefully, his application will be reviewed at the Budapest Grand Council meeting.

Ms. M a r t ha Fajardo reports that C olumbia now has official r e gi s t r a t i o n for landscape architects.

In the future I p l a n to increase efforts, with the help of individual members, to form associations in the Carribean, Peru, and the Republic of Panama. I will also initiate other individual m e m b e r s h i p s as I become aware of landscape ar chitects p r a c t i c i n g in South and Central America. 2.

A F O R M A T I O N OF A G RA DU ATE PR OGR AM IN SAUDI ARABIA.

IN LANDSCAPE ARC HIT E CT U RE

I mad e two trips to Saudi Arabia in D e ce mbe r 1983 and April 1984 to assist Kin g Faisal U n i v e r s i t y in e s tab lis hin g a m a s te r of lan dscape architecture program. My first trip was a fa ct- finding mi s s io n during wh ic h I stressed the e s t ab li s hm e nt of an associat ion of landscape arch ite cts and m e m b e r s h i p in IFLA. I also requested that the Saudis send a repre sen tat ive to the 1984 Grand Council m e e t i n g in Budapest. W i t ho u t any question, they have more than enough landscape arc hitects in Saudi Arab ia to form a national associa ti on and i m m e di a te l y bec ome members of IFLA. Unfortunately, the gov er n me n t is ve r y apprehensive about establishment of any associations. This is further c om pou nde d by the fact that almost all (if not all) landscape architects in Saudi Arabia are ex-patriots. I am pre se nt l y searching for an imaginative way to solve this problem. D u r i n g my second trip, we p re p ar e d a curriculum for the m a s te r of landscape architecture pr og ra m which has been ap proved by the college and u ni v e r s i t y councils and will b e g i n in the fall 1985. The pr og r am will provide the op po r tu n it y for students to study and to prepare for entry into pr ofe ssi ona l practice or research. One of the problems I no ted while reviewing student work is that the ex-patriot teachers tend to train their students to attack environmental pr obl e ms according to the approach they used in their p a rt i cu l ar country. Consequently, the solutions are not gea red to the very special environmental problems of Saudi Arabia. In the future I will be returning to Saudi Arabia to assist wi t h the dev e lo p me n t of course syllabi, bi bli ogr aph y for ac qui sit ion by the library, conduct seminars in research and de velop a conference on the environment of Saudi Arabia. As part of the conference, we may do a study of one of the many en da nge red landscapes of Saudi Arabia.

I am also plann ing to go to King Aboulaziz University in Jeddah to review the bachlor of landscape architecture p ro gra m and help develop a cooperative relationship between the master's progra m at King Faisal University in Damam. In additio n to my work in Saudi Arabia, I have been contacted c o nc ern ing the es tablishment of a landscape architecture pr ogram in Tunisia. This is very tentative and will be dis cus sed in greater detail this October.

ANNEX V I I I

Melanie Schwenke, Kenya

J-5

September 1984

Throughout the developing world there is a great need for landscape architects to assist in sensitive development and planning of the landscape.

Development

in these countries is taking place at a very rapid pace, generally with adverse effects on the environment.

The reasons for this are many but one of the major

causes is lack of proper planning and a disregard for the environment.

Many

international aid agencies issue strong statements about the importance of environmental concerns in development but few see these ideas followed through in the projects they sponsor.

The problem here is often that landscape

planning is dismissed as an unnecessary luxury even though neglect of these concerns frequently leads to severe long term problems of environmental degradation.

In new settlements, lack of landscape planning'and subsequent

absence of parks and open spaces affects the inhabitants attitudes towards their environment and inhibits the development of a community spirit.

Studies of

this phenomenon in the developed world have shown that there are severe long term costs to society when landscape planning is ignored.

In the third world

only the very basic needs of food and shelter are considered essential to community health despite the undisputed facts that environment has a profound effect on the development of a stable community. Third world probjems are very different from those in the developed world and many of them are political.

It is essential that landscape architects

understand these problems so they^ are able to make recommendations which are practical, easy to implement and politically acceptable.

Experts from the #

developed world frequently make the mistake of preparing lengthy, complex leports which are hard to understand and difficult and expensive to implement. In these cases, landscape architects earn a bad reputation and Governments are unwilling to use limited resources to employ "useless" and extravagent consultants. Given that landscape architects have a vital role to play in the developing world , how can they play this role?

The biggest problem is the scarcity of trained

landscape architects in these countries, especially in Africa, and the lack of understanding and cognizance of the profession.

In developing countries

landscape architecture must be very wide in its application.

There is no room

for narrow design professionalism but professional out look must be broad enough to encompass large scale environmental planning and design problems.

Landscape

architects must be adaptable, willing to learn and perserverant. Due to lack of knowledge of even the existence of the profession of landscape architecture, traditional landscape architectural work is scarce in the developing world.

The potential for the involvement of landscape architects in all aspects of development work is however unlimited.

This potential will not be realised

unless landscape architects make themselves known and work to achieve it. Much of the development is carried out with loans from international aid agencies which could insist that landscape architects are included on the team of consultants.

Agencies such as the World Bank employ consultants such as

economists, engineers and agronomists - why not landscape architects?

There

are numerous projects such as low cost housing projects, irrigation schemes, dam building projects and reafforestation schemes which are designed by teams of engineers, architects.

foresters, hydroiogists and economists, but no landscape There are almost never any environmental design consultants involved,

except for the occasional appointment of ecologists.

The result is that

developments are "imposed" upon the landscape without any sensitivity towards the environment.

In developed countries, landscape architects are increasingly

considered to be important consultants in similar projects, but in the third world they are a "luxury".

The.only way to change this is to pursue a policy

of persistant lobbying of international agencies such as World Bank, United Nations, EEC, etc.

To be successful this effort would need to be undertaken

by IFLA and all the national landscape institutes and societies.

It could take

the form of periodic letter writing and frequent meetings with officials in these agencies from IFLA representatives and others. educating would also be necessary.

A certain amount of

Many agencies do not know what landscape

architects do and how they can contribute to development projects.

It would

be useful for IFLA to produce a booklet to show what landscape architects can do in the developing world.

There is a widely held misconception that landscape

architects are expensive garden designers. Ideally landscape where they

architect5 should be trained at colleges in the countries

are to work.

Courses could then be specifically

the problems and issues of that country.

designed to approach

There are presently no landscape

courses in Black Africa and yet few of the landscape courses offered in the developed world give appropriate training to African students.

The establishÂ

ment of a landscape course in Africa and education of African landscape architects

is a long term project.

In short term,landscape architects are

critically

needed now, as time is fast running out.

The population of Africa will double by the year 2000.

It is up to IFLA and

the landscape architectural profession to focus on Africa and the developing world as a number one priority for action.

Landscape architects cannot solve

the problems facing developing countries but they can certainly make a substantial contribution to sound environmental development and to the improvement and protection of environmental quality and natural resources.

38 -

If we wait until landscape courses are established and landscape architects are being trained, it will be the year 2000 and much of the unique natural landscape will be destroyed and the living conditions of most of the population of developing countries and the world will be intolerable.

In conclusion, in my capacity as Individual Member for Kenya of IFLA, I am seeking a positive and action-oriented response in the following fields

lobbying of international aid agencies donor agencies, and funding institutions to involve landscape architects and planners

IFLA support for seminars and ultimately a Congress in black Africa *

immediate action to encourage landscape professional training relevant to African problems, to stimulate opportunities for scholarships for African students, and longer term efforts to establish a comprehensive landscape programme at a black African university.

Individual Member IFLA The P r ep a r a t o r y Work for the Landscape Arc hitects Society of the R ep ub lic of China. To prepare for the foundation of this association, Prof. Lai and Mr. Yu summoned four me eting (March 1983; Oc tob er 1983; Jan. 18 1984; Mar. 24, 1984), d i s c us s in g the re gulations of the a s s o ciation, the d i s t r i b u t i o n of work, the procedures of r eg is tra tio n etc. A d e c i s i o n is made that before the July of 1984, the p ro c e dures of found ing the as s oc ia tio n should be finished and the result shall be reported to IFLA. The newly founded association, then, shall apply as National Members for the admission of IFLA before the m e e t i n g of IFLA this year begins.

The T a i w an Pr o vin cia l Government declared the year of 1 9 8 4 to be The Green Year, actively pr o cee din g to green the land The T a i w a n P r ov i nc i al Government declared the year of 1984 1 (.from Jan. 1,1984 to Dec. 31 of the same Year) to be The Green Year, wit h the object that there will be at least as man y trees as there are citizens. The strees is on propaganda. It is m a t ched with the actual afforest at ion and other works to green and beautify the land.

This rep or t has b e e n p r e p a r e d to assist Ex ec u t i v e members and C o m m i t t e e c h a i r m e n in a s s e s s i n g the role and e f f e c t i v e n e s s of IFLA's co mm it t ee s . The need for a r e v i e w is t i m e l y and has b e en b ro ugh t into s har per focus by the r e s u l t s of the p r e - M u n i c h questionnaire. In this d o c u m e n t m e m b e r c o u n t r i e s were asked to comment on the e f f e c t i v e n e s s of c o m m i t t e e s and to make su g ge s ti o ns for i m p r o v e m e n t s (see a t t a c h e d ) .

To e x p l o r e the su b je c t further I wrote to all c o m m i t t e e c h a i r m e n in A p r i l and h av e be e n g r e a t l y enc ou r ag e d by the p o s i t i v e response. T h e need for a m e e t i n g of Co m m it t ee C h a i r m e n in B u d a p e s t was s u g g e s t e d by several, h e n c e the p r e p a r a t i o n of this r e p o r t as a p o s s i b l e b asi s for discussion. F i r s t l y ho wever, it is w o r t h no ti n g that IFLA c u r r e n t l y has 20 c o m m it te e s .

: "Survey of Research in Landscape Architecture"

ANNEX XIII

1-16 COMPTE-RENDU

Gilbert SAMEL - OBJET DE L'ETUDE -

Directeur du Comité de Recherche

La Fe de ration Internationale des Architectes-Paysagistes (I.F.L.A.) s'est ^U 6 inCnnn Ü r -iin 30 1981, au titre du Programme de Participation, une aide de 10.000 dollars pour "Survey of Research in Landscape Architecture" (réf. 9307). Cette subvention, versée en mars 1982, a permis au Comité de Recherche de l'I.F.L. de poursuivre les études qu'il avait déjà entreprises sur ce thème et de mener à bien la m i se au point d'une enquête sur l'état de la recherche dans le domaine du paysage et de 1 'architecture paysagère. La démarche adoptée est caractérisée par les intentions suivantes -

faire en sorte que le travail accompli jusqu'ici par les chercheurs, les thèmes abordés, soit connu des autres ;

ou du moins

- faire en sorte qu'après analyse de cet inventaire, quelques directions prioritaires de recherches soient dégagées ; -

proposer à certains pays, compte tenu de leur expérience (ou de leur possibilité matérielles) de poursuivre l'exploration de thèmes déjà abordés par d'autres mais insuffisamment aboutis, ou de prendre en charge des thèmes majeurs, utiles à court ou moyen terme par des pays demandeurs*;

- engager ces pays à expérimenter et à rendre compte de leurs expériences.

L'étude a donc fait l'objet de deux phases principales

- une phase de réflexion : quelle recherche pour le paysage ? - une phase d'inventaire sous forme de fiches questionnaires à l'intention de chaque pays susceptible de mener des programmes de recherche (cf. fiches de la Pologne jointes à titre d'exemple).

Ces documents qui sont destinés à être mis à la disposition des différents utilisateurs, pays en voie de développement, chercheurs, universitaires, professionnels isolés, etc; constituent une banque de données pouvant s'intégrer aux programmes informatiques en cours H'élaboration. La France en particulier, dans le cadre de la création de l'Institut Français du Paysage est directement intéressée par cette étude (cf. ci-joint la lettre de Monsieur DAUGE, responsable de la Direction de l ’Urbanisme et des Paysages au Ministère de l'Urbanisme et du Logement). Il en va de même de la Commission Nationale d'Orientation du Proqramme prioritaire de recherche et d'innovation sur l'Urbanisme et les Technologies de l'Habitat (cf. lettre jointe au dossier). Les p r e m i e r s r é s u l t a t s de c e t t e é t u d e s e m b l e n t d onc p o s i t i f s et nous a v o n s t o u t l i e u d ' e s p é r e r q u e l ' e x p l o i t a t i o n qu i e n s e r a f a i t e d a n s l ' a v e n i r p e r m e t t r a une m e i l l e u r e a p p r o c h e -et une m e i l l e u r e r é s o l u t i o n d e s p r o b l è m e s p a y s a g e r s , n o t a m m e n t d a n s les p a y s en v o i e de d é v e l o p p e m e n t .

Quelle recherche pour le paysage ?

CONSTAT

L.? recherche est trop souvent une discipline "confidentielle". Menée par des personnes passionnées, certes, mais de façon isolée,.sans objectifs coordonnés, elle demeure une affaire de spécialistes. Il Importe donc

- de la construire - de la rendre "accessible" au plus grand nombre - de la faire éclater dans différents domaines.

Après une phase d'inventaire et de constat, 11 convient ainsi d'organiser en quelque sorte une recherche raisonnée, adaptée aux besoins contemporains et répondant aux principales 1nterrogat1ons-programmes : la recherche

pour qui ? dans quels buts ? dans quel esprit ? dans quelles directions ? dans quel ordre ? avec quels moyens ? par qui ?

C O M M E NT OR GANISER LA R E C H ERCHE 1/ Faire le point de l'existant Quelques pays ont engagé -et certains de longue date- des recherches en matière d'espace vert et de paysage. Un potentiel intéressant existe et cet acquis de données demande à être exploité, mais surtout réactualisé. Un inventaire de la recherche au niveau International a été entrepris par 1 ' ’ .F .L .A . La Fédération Internationale des Archltectes-Paysagistes (IFLA) regroupe les associations et membres Individuels d'une cinquante de pays soit environ F.000 membres. 16 comités Internationaux fonctionnent au sein de l'IFLA (législation, enseignement, paysages en danger, etc...).Le comité de recherche est actuellement dirigé par Gilbert SAMEL Architecte-paysaglste France (ancien directeur Mr VR00M Wagenlngen - Hollande).Et il semble opportun d'assurer les lie« les plus étroits avec cette organisation internationale pour bénéficier d'une part du fonds important de documentation existant, et d'autre part, des re l at io ns professionnelles qu'elle est en mesure d'assurer, en particulier sur le plan univorsi taire.

2/ Réorienter la recherche Beaucoup d'éléments d'information existent. De nombreux axes de recherches ont connu des débuts d'exploration. Mais il y a des ruptures. Il convient donc de faire le point de ces vides et de réorienter larecherche à partir de ce constat en s'appuyant sur les points forts de"vocation" de chaque pays en matière de recherche.

Si les axes prioritaires sont assez faciles à définir, 1 'ordre dans lequel les recherches peuvent se me n e r est lui plus souvent H é aux opportunités (des personnes ou des faits) que peuvent être amenés à rencontrer ceux qUj ont la charge des programmes de recherche. Il convient là d'agir avec souplesse et logique plus qu'avec rigueur de planification. Quelques thèmes semblent toutefois présenter un caractère d'urgence en France : - e ns ei g ne men t ; - insertion professionnelle sur le plan des activités nationales ou internationales ; - techniques spécifiques (paysages industriels, pays arides, etc.

International Committee on Roads Terms of Reference

Introdu ct ion

Prepared by John W. Bright, Chairman

ANNEX XIV 1-17

all the elements of the human environment with which landscape architects must deal, it seems that roads have been the most compelling and often the most controversial Whether rural highways, suburban parkways, or urban streets, the location, design, construction and rehabilitation of roads have presented formidable problems to the professionaI, have brought about major environmental changes, and have ----— 1 created serious concerns among the people affected. 1n some rare si tuations landscape architects have had substantive roles in basic location and design issues, and the resu11s show it. The B 1ue Ridge Parkway in the USA, as a ca se-in-p oin t , exemplifies the 1ayman—u s e r "s as w e l1 as the design professional's idea of a road which is efficient and tec h n ic:a 1 1 y c or rect, and Jays gracefully on the landscape with m inimum d 1 sr up ti on of natural and human systems. Reclamations of road-related scars along the German autobahns. whether accomplished by landscape architects or others, serve as models of good resource husbandry and show a high regard for the v i s u al quality of the landscape,, In too many other instances the landscape architect has been involved on 1y in a cosmetic role, to "green up" a fundamentally been involved poor design. Or the landscape architect has not at all. IELA_and Roads The IFLA has as its objectives to develop and promote the profession, to establish the profession as an instrument of aesthetic achievement and social change, to identify and preserve balance of ecological systems, and to establish high standards of professional practice. To attain these objectives, IFLA may, among other activities, form committees. In recognition of the significant impact of roads on the landscape and on human communities, in realization of the role of the- 1 a n d s c a p e archi tect in r Octd 1o c a t io ri a n (d design, IFLA authorized an International Committee on Roads. The committee was inactive for a short while, but has now been reactivated by President Zvi Miller under chairmanship of John W. Bright, FASLA, by letter of June 4, 1984. Additional committee repr esent at i oris are being sought from IFLA s Cent» c*.l Reciion (throuah IFLA immediate past President Hans Werkmeister ), the Western Region (through IFLA Vice President Vince Bellafiore), and the Eastern Region (through First Vice Ft osident Robin Gay).

will will will

3. Prepare policies that IFLA might adopt and promulgate to its members for guidance of professional practitioners, government officials, allied professionals, and the public. To achieve these objectives the committee proposes a number of possible projects, all of which are closely related. The committee proposes development of bibliographies, policies, and standards for roads, as well as sponsorship of an international symposium on the subject.

h ib 1i oqraphy The committee knows that there is a wealth of information, indeed whole libraries, on the general topic of roads, most of it dealing with engineering aspects. Some specialized bi b l iographies exist as well, including some of particular interest to landscape architects such as "Roadside Development." An apparent void, which this committee proposes to fill, is development of a bibliography of materials dealing with the topic "Roads in the Landscape— Environmentally Sensitive Location and Design." Once completed, this bibliography should be published as separate document for dissemination to the IFLA membership.

Poli c ies Erased on the? research attendant to the foregoing b ib 1 iogr aphy, the committee proposes to develop a number of policies for cons iderat ion by the Grand Council. These would be used by IFLA members for the edification of individual practitioners and for public statements or positions taken by member organizations. Some IFLA members already have policies related to roads and these can be used as models. (Note the several from ASLA appended to this document.) Several such policies appear to warrant high priority efforts of this committee, including ones on the following subjects! 1.

COMMUNICATIONS

(a)

How is the two way communication between your association and IFLA handled?

Most associations felt that this aspect of IFLA communications was satisfactory with IFLA delegates reporting regularly to the local executive on IFLA affairs. One or two countries appeared to have some difficulty and language was listed as a problem by Japan. (b)

Are your oral/written reports about IFLA matters submitted to a committee and/or to the local membership of your association?

Many countries used a committee link to deal with IFLA matters. Items of interest are then passed on to members via newsletter, IFLA newsy etc. (c)

Are IFLA activities such as Grand Council Agendas, Minutes, Budgets Committee work discussed?

Results to this question were less positive. It appears that those countries j few in membership numbersy do have some difficulty in being sympathetic to IFLAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs (particularly budgets) compared with their own problems. 4

There is a need to ensure, that IFLA works to a regular timetable for all official business correspondence and activities.

PUBLICITY

Did your organisation publicise the profession of Landscape Architecture and its work in the last year?

Only two countries did not respond positively to this question. countries undertook some form of promotion/publicity. The following were typical of the methods used: Landscape Architecture week Television programmesy Radio

REGISTRATION, LICENSING, CERTIFICATION

Does y ou r country have legal Landscape Architects?

registration, licensing or certification of

The USAj Germany are the only countries which have legal registration of landscape architects, This issue does not appear to be of great concern, to many countries although 6 countries have requested IFLA assistance. There was some confusion in response to this question. Some countries considered it more important to have landscape architecture recognised and accepted by Governments and other professions tJian to legalise the profession by way of registration.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

Does your country have laws, ordinances or Government regulations which deal with the conservation and protection of the environment?

All countries answered in the affirmative and it is presumed that Raymond Freeman has now received a positive response to this question.

SPECIAL LANDSCAPE PROJECTS

List any special Landscape Architectural projects in which y Â° ^ r # . organisation or members have been involved. We are interested in projects which your o r ganisation considers to be of excellent planning and for design q u a i ity.

Most countries were able to respond positively to this questiâ&#x201E;˘ w d s w e gave examples. Others were to follow this up after contacting members in their associations.

The second part of this question which ashed for suggestions on improvements to existing functions or any new services raised the following ideas : Reed for quick response to world environmental issues. IFLA "Green Flash" communication suggestedâ&#x20AC;&#x17E; ie3 Acid Rain problems. Increased advocacy to all Governments and others involved with enviroivnental problems. Form a committee for public relations and press services. Would prefer more Technical Conferences and enlargement of IFLA Hews when appropriate. Revamp Committee approach to improve commujiication and geographic requirements on subject matter. Consider a more spontaneous 'task force ' approach to achieving results on IFLA nerds rather than formal committee structure. Rotate Committee work to national associations on a reviewable basis. <4

Only 25% of returns offered positive suggestions to this section. There were some areas of direct concern regarding IFLA s perj ormance in some areas and these are being followed up.

YEARBOOK

Did you as delegate contact any prospective advertisers for the IFLA yearbook?

The majority of associations made some attempt to contact potential advertisers but some difficulty is experienced from the more isolated areas of IFLA membership. Advertisers must have a product of international standing to see effective results from IFLA yearbook advertising. The benefits of regional advertising should be looked at from a cost/benefit point of view.

IF L A - Y E A R B O Q K - Report by the Editor

It is with a de e p sense of personal regret that I have to report, that for the first time in the four years since it's inception, the IFL A-Y E A R B O O K could not be pri nte d in time for di st r i b u t i o n at the Grand Council Meeting. This failure is due to a seven-week strike by the German printing i n d u s t r y in June and Ju l y of this year, just the time when we w e r e ready to go to press . I have tried to overco me these ob stacles by moving the typesetting and p h o t o r e p r o work to another company, at no additional cost. However, I was not able to find someone w ho could supolv the ac t u a l p r i n t i n g and b i n d ing of the YEARBOOK at the same low cost as C l a u s e n & Bosse, w h e re the three previous editions of the Y E A R B O O K have been printed, in time for this meeting. The co m p l e t e films and reoros are at the printers, but there is such a tr eme ndo us b a c k log of orders, mai nly for the International F r a n k f u r t Book Fair taking place this fall, that our order could not be filled, in spite of the fact that we had an agreed time s c h e d u l e w i t h the printers. C l a us en & Bosse is one of the largest p r i n t i n g houses in Germany. The date for the ap pearance of the YEAR BOO K is now O c t obe r 19, 1984. The books wil l be shipped to all National As s o c i a t i o n s immediately thereafter. This delay in the p u b l i c a t i o n date is even the more r egrettable since due to the immense efforts of ma inl y three people Hans Dorn, T ed O s m u n d s o n and Zvi Miller - the YEAR BOO K will b r e a k even for the first time this year. T h a n k s to the efforts of these and a few others, we were able to obt a i n ads from 38 diffe ren t advertisers, including institutional ads by schools and universities. T h e s e ads will generate an income of appr. 6 0 . 0 0 0 , — German Marks. The total p r o d u c t i o n costs will amount to appr. 4 2 . 0 0 0 , — DM (or DM 2,45 per book), w i t h an additional estimated cost of DM 7 . 5 0 0 , — for shipping.

•

In o r d e r to be able to repeat the success with advertisers, it is a b s o l u t e l y m a n d a t o r y that they receive some indication of impact of their ads in the Yearbook. So if you have some need of products that are ad v e r t i s e d in the YEARBOOK, please make sure to contact th ese firms and let them know that you got their address from the IFLA YEARBOOK.
