2020 IFLA Avrupa Öğrenci ve Genç Profesyoneller Yarışması – Peyzajdaki Ayak İzleri

IFLA Avrupa'nın öğrenciler ve genç profesyonellere yönelik düzenlediği yarışmaya başvurular için son tarih 20 Haziran 2020. 

İklim değişikliği ve Dünya‘nın yıkıcı ısınmasının çevremiz üzerindeki etkileriyle karşı karşıyayız. Peyzaj mimarları nasıl tepki verebilir? Hangi çözümlerimiz var? Peyzaj mimarlarının bilgilerini geliştirmeli miyiz?

Peyzajda makro ayak izleri

Büyük ölçekli projelere bakmak önemlidir. Peyzajda ele aldığımız Makro Ayak İzleri: şehirlerin gelişmesi ve genişlemesi, kentlilerin sayısının artması, enerji üretiminin çeşitlendirilmesi, yeni enerji kaynakları, değişen iklimler ve mavi-yeşil altyapı çözümleri gibi peyzaj ve doğaya büyük müdahaleleri içermektedir. Bu büyük projelerle ne kadar ilgileniyoruz ve peyzaj mimarları olarak bu projeleri çözmek için ne gibi önerilerimiz var? Daha iyi sonuçlar elde etmek için hangi disiplinlerle çalışmamız gerekiyor? Geleceğin büyük projelerini daha iyi ele alabilmek için nelerin değiştirilmesi gerekiyor?

Peyzajdaki Mikro Ayak İzleri

Ayrıca daha küçük ölçekli projelerle uğraşıyor ve kentsel alanların altyapısında değişiklikler yapıyoruz. Motorlu taşıt trafiğini ve kirliliği azaltmak için daha fazla insanın yürümesini, bisiklete binmesini veya çevre dostu taşımayı kullanmasını nasıl sağlayabiliriz? Halk sağlığını nasıl iyileştirir ve insanları daha iyi hissettiririz? Hangi tasarım ve uygulama çözümlerimiz var? Nasıl daha iyi sonuçlar elde edebilir ve müşterilerimizi kaliteli ve güzel bir açık alana yatırım yapmaya ikna edebilir miyiz? İzlanda‘daki kent sakinleriyle yapılan son proje, şehir hattı ve çevresine odaklanmak olmuştur. Araç trafiğini nasıl azaltabiliriz, yürüyüş ve bisiklete kullanımını nasıl artırabiliriz? Daha az yer kaplayan ve daha sürdürülebilir topluma doğru atılacak küçük adımlarda hangi çözümlere sahibiz?
