ECLAS 2023: Labyrinth of the World - Landscape Crossroads

Original language description

European Council of the Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS) organises every year the annual conference focusing on topical questions of landscape architecture&apos; education, research, and profession. The ECLAS 2023 conference held for the ECLAS partners by Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic, has issued from the topics of the 2021 and 2022 ECLAS conferences. The discussion on the current global changes and their impact on landscape architecture has been revolved around a multitude of layers, overlapping and intersecting and leading us to many crossroads: crossroads of time, space, mind, and humanity. The conference commemorated the 430th anniversary of John Amos Comenius, a philosopher, writer, scientist, teacher and a visionary thinker who had reformed the world of education for the centuries to come. His book Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Heart was written about 400 years ago. The chaotic world that he had pictured in it appears to be a reality. The changes we are living now seem to be faster, more intense, more dramatic, and very complex. We solve global issues, but are we aware about the struggles at local levels? Which solutions proved to work, and which did not? At a time when the conference was preparing the words imbalance, insecurity, and threats resonated very strongly within each of us. We have no idea about the turns the global happenings will take and in which direction they will evolve. But what we do know for certain is that landscape architecture is indispensable for the quality and resilience of the space we share. In collaboration with other disciplines, landscape architecture is able to offer original ideas, visionary solutions, and effective innovations. Landscape architecture integrates the aspect of time, the natural phenomena of the place, the inner world of imagination, identities of local communities as well as architecture, technologies and infrastructure. This gives hope for our landscapes. The conference in Brno has been designed around the concept of crossroads within the labyrinth of the world. The title of each crossroad defined its content, which is only briefly indicated using some strong contradictions and keywords. All crossroads were open to your interpretation. The conference proceedings was eventually act as a survey covering some of the most important landscape architecture issues, their core aspects and examples of solutions as a result of a specific research through conference.
