Collaborating for Democratic Landscape Transformation
Democratic Landscape Transformation is a semester-long international online seminar presented by a team of practitioners from universities and NGOs across Europe and the U.S. with presentations, discussions, and multimedia resources from around the world.
It is one of three components of the Open Landscape Academy, a participatory action research project on landscape democracy.
The other two parts of OLA are:
- Intensive summer onsite workshops that test what you learned in the seminar
- Local Living Labs at several European sites where ideas, experiences and methods are tested, assessed, re-interpreted, and documented
The question driving our project is: How do we co-create a model for democratic landscape transformations -- grounded in theory, practices of landscape democracy and participation?
Landscape democracy is an emergent aspect of our profession at the intersection of landscape and human rights.
The OLA's biggest goal is to prototype a model that engages academic and local knowledge, professionalism and creativity, giving privilege to the perspectives of the historically underserved communities who have not had access to landscape democracy.
We seek to think truly globally and apply local solutions.
The course is open to all but designed for students of the planning professions who want the theories, methods, tools and skills for how to create a more democratic, equitable, just, and sustainable world.
