About the IFLA Hub

Our Mission

We believe landscape architects play a crucial role in addressing the climate and biodiversity emergency by mastering complex human-nature relationships. To support this, we aim to:

  • Develop an open-source platform that serves as a repository for essential information about our profession.
  • Inform policy, planning, decision-making, and best practices to drive meaningful change.
  • Foster collaboration among landscape architects to strengthen our collective impact.
