OLA Symposium 'Democratic Landscape Transformation in Action'

The Open Landscape Academy (OLA) invites researchers, practitioners, and activists to submit proposals for an online symposium exploring the intersections of landscape democracy, co-creation, and democratic landscape transformation. This symposium aims to foster a dynamic exchange of ideas and practices that advance more inclusive, participatory, and equitable landscapes. We welcome contributions in the form of 10-minute presentations accompanied, if applicable, by a 30-minute methods workshop, providing an opportunity for both knowledge sharing and hands-on engagement. For inspiration, we encourage participants to consult the OLA Charta for Democratic Landscape Transformation.

The symposium will take place on Zoom on May 23, 2025, starting approx. around 14 pm CEST.
