We are a 21st century profession and well equipped to deal with the pressures that will shape new lifestyles and creativity for generations to come. This talk will review the state of the profession and present the essential role landscape architects play in advancing the profession by demanding the highest standards of education, training, research and professional practice. Together, we will continue to raise awareness of landscape architecture around the world and promote the sustainable management and design of our natural and built environments.
