The "Landscape Architecture" specialization aims to train specialists committed to landscape planning and intervention from an interdisciplinary perspective, considering environmental, social, and cultural issues. The program has the potential to attract a nationwide audience due to the contemporary discourse on landscape, the need to update concepts—expanding the functional aspect of the landscape—and the broadening of perspectives through methodological practices aimed at long-term urban sustainability, resilience, and responses to urban ecosystem services. The online format facilitates reaching a more diverse audience, targeting independent professionals or those employed by private companies, public agencies, or non-governmental organizations who hold an undergraduate degree.
The Belém City Hall and the National Board of the Institute of Architects of Brazil (IAB) are hosting a national competition for the development of the Igarapé São Joaquim Urban Park in the Una basin. The competition invites participants to develop proposals for the urban, environmental, and landscape redevelopment of the area surrounding the Igarapé São Joaquim, with the goal of creating a park spanning 6.48 hectares.
The competition brief stipulates that proposals must align with the concept of social urbanism, aiming to empower, accommodate, and support citizens while transforming vulnerable territories.
