Student Roundtable Discussions

This is a national and international student representative delegation. Each of the landscape architecture programs has been invited to support 3 students to attend this full day meeting at the University of Canberra.

These students will be engaged in a day of roundtable discussions. The agenda for the roundtable will be developed by the students themselves. The day will be punctuated by a lecture event delivered by two of the international speakers at the conference; Professor Richard Weller who is the Martin and Margy Meyerson Chair of Urbanism and Professor and Chair of Landscape Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania and Professor Ellen Neises of the School of Design at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia. The students will then be able to deliver a manifesto of their round-table discussions to all of the Festival attendees at the close of the conference.

This Roundtable provides a golden opportunity to galvanise and energise the national student body, and enable some lucky Representatives to participate in a think tank with their national and international peers, and draft an agenda for future actions.
