This lecture is designed for architects, landscape architects, urban planners, and climate activists. It focuses specifically on the public urban landscape and the importance of making cities "climate-ready." With over 40 years of experience, Martha Schwartz and her firm have completed projects worldwide, ranging from site-specific art installations to public spaces, parks, master planning, and land reclamation. Schwartz is now dedicated to strategic landscape planning and land use, helping leaders prepare for the climate change impacts their cities will face in the near future. This is undoubtedly a lecture you won't want to miss.
