and surveys. Informal conversations with contacts, connected to employment opportunities have revealed instances of landscape architects involved in NFM. Whilst details cannot be
included in the dissertation, examples are noted here for future note or research.
Landscape architects within Groundwork have worked with landowners on river naturalisation/reconnection projects.
Landscape architects within the Environment Agency (EA) are directly engaged in NFM
projects, carrying out assessments, developing strategies, managing partnerships, applying
for funding and delivering projects.
The EA also engages landscape architects in private practice through various framework
agreements. For instance one practice was engaged to develop interventions for the
catchment surrounding Derwent Water. The landscape architects used GIS to understand
the topography and walked over the site to develop an NFM interventions guide specific to
the area that the EA could then use as a discussion tool with landowners.
