Future Now: Taking Action for People + Planet by Design

The Future Now summit marks ten years since LAF’s Summit on Landscape Architecture and the Future, when a diverse group of the world’s leading landscape architects reflected on the last half-century since LAF’s founding in 1966 and presented bold ideas for the future. Their ideas resulted in a new vision and 21st-century agenda for the discipline of landscape architecture, codified in the inspirational New Landscape Declaration call to action and subsequent Action Plan.

LAF’s 2026 Future Now summit will reflect on progress and change since that watershed moment and look to the future with speakers and workshops that demonstrate transformational leadership and share bold ideas, innovations, and actions that answer the calls to action in the New Landscape Declaration.
