Shared Memories By Renee Davies “We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future”. George Bernard Shaw Despite having more knowledge at our disposal than any other period in history, we are still grappling with how to live on and share our World and in many instances we are still at a critical crisis point. Landscape architect Catherine Howett has been quoted in Landscape Architecture magazine as highlighting environmental protection as one of the most important issues facing the profession "Landscape architects should be in the vanguard of the environmental movement, discovering ways to help design environments that at the most fundamental level 'do no harm' - and beyond that, in ways large and small, contribute to the renewal of the earth and of the human spirit." This sentiment of innovative environmental responsibility set alongside localised sense of place was echoed by a number speakers and delegate discussions at the recent International Federation of Landscape Architects (IFLA) 50th World Congress. The theme of the Congress – Shared Wisdom in an Age of Change aimed at throwing out a challenge to explore these issues and discuss opportunities to influence and manage change in our landscapes and safeguard and enhance where appropriate qualities we value. Landscape Architects are well placed to address such issues and provide leadership and guidance with these challenges and opportunities. As we practice we need to be alert to the need for new knowledge, to changes in technology, climate and social conditions. Like no other profession we rely on knowledge from varied disciplines, this shared wisdom can be better utilised to ensure our work is not only technical or artistic but that it is respectful of a range of communities and cultures. This point was highlighted by Dr Rana Singh who suggested an approach that honours the spiritual connection we have with the environment and the art of “Acting locally but insightfully”. Vincent Ward explored local experiences and memories an their importance to landscape, the secret of which he believed was to create “pockets of enrichment that will provide for experience… to find the specific that will resonate”. Vincent’s thoughts were discussed by a group during the break where it was agreed by Ian Henderson that landscapes should exhibit an “intensification of moments” supported by Will Threshers suggestion of a “heightening of the sense of difference”. These impromptu discussions were a special feature of the Congress, where ideas put forward by the speakers were further explored through varied discussion with a truly international perspective (40 different countries were represented by the Congress attendees). As highlighted by Sim van der Ryn and Stuart Cowan in the book Ecological Design “We live in two interpenetrating worlds. The first is the living world, which has been forged in an evolutionary crucible over a period of four billion years. The second is the world of roads and cities, farms and artefacts, that people have been designing for themselves over the last few millennia. The condition that threatens both worlds – unsustainability – results from a lack of integration between them”. A number of speakers explored the notion of sustainability and environmental/ecological design – and a point of difference was that the speakers recognised the importance of linking people to place within these concepts. Thomas Woltz illustrated through a series of rural projects how narrative can be used in design as a way to tell stories to link people to place and how design was an important vehicle for making values of conservation visible. In his view the virtues of distinguishing between these interpenetrating worlds provided an opportunity to support stewardship “It is ok to show artifice – to tell the story of the reconstruction – artificiality tells the story of redemption and becomes an insurance policy for longevity”. Thomas statement that “Beauty is the portal between us as designers to create a society of stewards” is an honest and unashamed belief aesthetics and its role in what we do as designers – that we should celebrate that contribution and use it.

Michael Pawlyn presented further concepts of sustainable design and shared the knowledge of biomimicry as an inspiration for design. He championed a curiosity about what is coming next in order to respond as designers with creativity and appropriateness. He outlined three interlinked challenges, to increase resource efficiency, a move from lineal to closed loop and a move from fossil fuel economy to solar economy and emphasised the need to look at the whole metabolism of cities – going from lineal to closed loops. He urged us as designers to play a different role to fearlessly create futures, he believed that “Inspired collaboration will get through the challenges of the future… we can choose to shape the future instead of fear the future” Jim Sinatra’s irreverent and vibrant approach to exploring sense of place and the local in design culminated in the statement that “The future of our profession is creating peace” and this concept seemed to resonate with a number of delegates and was further emphasised by Jacky Bowring who’s powerful discussion on memory and landscape highlighted human and spiritual connection as a critical component of our landscapes “Remembering is critical to identity and who we are - the key to resilience is connection to place” A culmination of all the above concepts explored, discussed and debated throughout the Congress was presented in a collective declaration. A declaration that supports the International Landscape Convention being championed by IFLA and aims at articulating to a broad audience the potential of landscape as a tool for sustainable development, that supports and empowers local communities and deals with the idea of landscape as a whole space (rural, urban, wilderness, man-made, treasured and degraded) in order to give it strength. Most importantly it highlights the relationship that people have with landscape in an holistic and integrated view that sits above the compartmentalised nature of landscape so often presented. A sentiment that became very apparent during the presentations and ensuing discussions during the Congress. Our discipline grapples on a daily basis with concepts of change and dynamism. To appropriately respond to this we need to ensure constant exploration of new knowledge and sharing of wisdom. Sharing and exploration that adds value to the understanding and knowledge of our discipline and in so doing, constantly improves our professional competence and potential to change the world.
Tamaki Makarau Declara.on IFLA50 April 2013 We, the landscape architects of 41 na4ons of the world, commend the following resolu4ons to interna4onal, na4onal, regional and local decisión makers and assert that: 1. All landscapes of intertwined cultural, natural, urban and rural systems, including land and water, are important to people´s iden4ty and quality of life and therefore must be respected. 2. We support the proposed UNESCO Interna4onal Landscape Conven4on and urge all na4ons to engage with the process and support this inspira4onal conven4on, founded on local charter ac4ons. 3. We recognize tradi4onal and indigenous knowledge and wisdom held by people of the world, which contributes to understanding landscape and can guide decision making at this 4me and for our shared future, 4. We acknowledge that the profound connec4on between people and place roots culture to landscape and that our future requires our effec4ve ac4on and collabora4on to sustain the wealth of the landscape world-‐wide.
We need to be united, and address these issues, because as a profession we have much to offer, and the world has never needed our services more. “The desire to reach for the stars is ambitious. The desire to reach hearts is wise.” Maya Angelou

IFLA50 Student Competition 1st Place – IFLA Group Han Prize for Student Landscape Architecture “Blue Pray: restoration of Golbahar post-war zone by new water-centred planning mode” Lin Chensong Jia Ying Liu Jijao Xiao Yao Zhang Haitian Beijing Forestry University This proposal has taken a very real and important issue and manifested a valid, well researched and very well resolved design proposal for a war-ravaged town in Afghanistan. The restoration and recovery of the subterranean aquifer system and the meshing of this with the war remains of bomb craters has produced a surprisingly elegant, appropriate and in some respects a delightful solution. Thoroughly researched, well-expressed through time, grounded in site, and expressed in a clear and accessible manner.

IFLA50 Student Competition 2nd Place – IFLA Zvi Miller Prize “Terra Nova Ayiti: a landscape between urbanization & agriculture Port au Prince, Haiti” Florian Strauss TU Munich, Faculty of Architecture, Department of Landscape Architecture Addressing an earthquake ravaged and poor neighbourhood in Port au Prince, Haiti, this proposal is a thoroughly researched and well resolved design evocation of landscape opportunities. It is grounded in broad-based and comprehensive research and the developmental opportunity has been clearly articulated. It has been well developed through time, to produce a fulsome and potentially viable structure for the redevelopment of this quakeravaged community. The presentation is particularly effective for the analytical diagrams, and the clear and expressive illustrations

IFLA50 Student Competition 3rd Place – Merit Award “The Tidal Landscape of the Eemsdam” Roeland Meek University of Applied Sciences, Van Hall Larenstein, Tuin en landschapsinrichting Wageningen UR, Netherlands A very real project exploring opportunities for ecological restoration along the edge of the North Sea. This Netherlands-based project proposes the restoration of an ecologically significant wetland and the creation of recreational opportunities and wind farms to create a deeply grounded and potentially viable design proposal in northern Europe. The presentation is very well supported by excellent diagrams and sketches, clear and well expressed diagrams, and illustrates a deep understanding of not only the ecology but also the coastal geomorphology and hydrology of this region. A thoroughly believable proposal, appropriately vested in site and the opportunities and issues thereof.
