Traditional thinking about tackling poverty rarely considers the impact of the designed landscape. However, good design and well-planned landscape can address inequality and raise aspirations, as evidenced by the projects featured in the Rethinking the Urban Landscape exhibition.
Confirmed speakers include:
- Pam Warhurst of Incredible Edible Todmorden
- Julia Thrift of TCPA
- Rolf Roscher of Erz ltd

This event will be followed by a Q&A and drinks reception.
This is the second in a series of events that illustrate and expand on the themes of Rethinking the Urban Landscape, an exhibition curated by The Building Centre and the Landscape Institute. Each event asks a question that addresses future learning and thinking for the design profession. Speakers include landscape architects, policymakers, community activists and industry leaders.
