IFLA 75: UNCOVERING HIDDEN HISTORIES IN LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE

通过一系列在线和面对面的研讨会以及共同制作的面向公众的活动和产出，该项目将加强和扩展现有的欧洲风景园林档案国际网络（NELA）。扩大后的网络将首次将学术机构、档案馆和专业机构聚集在一起。它将建立一个新的、创新的、国际性的和多学科的合作，提高人们对档案材料和拥有大量与景观设计有关的材料的档案的认识。景观建筑档案保存专业的遗产，这个项目将展示如何存档和档案研究有助于深入了解建筑环境专业的历史发展，以及档案文件如何有助于更好地了解与景观和公共空间有关的当代关键问题，如气候和生物多样性危机，快速城市化，移民，空间正义。该网络将利用国际风景园林师联合会（IFLA）的历史和遗产作为案例研究项目，评估国际网络在历史研究方面的机会，并向不同受众传播历史研究。国际图联于1948年在剑桥成立，如今代表着77个国家协会，其使命是创造“全球可持续和平衡的生活环境，造福全人类”，这一使命再贴切不过了。它即将迎来75周年纪念日，因此，评估它几十年来的贡献是及时的。这一拟议中的国际网络将在拥有大量风景园林资料的欧洲主要档案馆、教育工作者、研究人员以及第三方组织之间建立合作关系，巩固和传播国际图联的共同历史，并通过了解其历史，评估其未来的作用。只有通过建立和维护一个国际和跨学科网络，才能实现这一目标，尊重不断变化的景观，不断发展的专业及其历史的动态。通过建立和促进集体记忆，该网络将支持景观研究和教育，加深对当前空间干预问题的理解，并增加对遗产问题的洞察力，无论是专业人士，还是间接的普通公众，都能够回答管理当前和未来景观的具体观点和兴趣。

Through a series of online and in-person workshops and co-produced public facing activities and outputs this project will strengthen and extend the existing international Network of European Landscape Architecture Archives (NELA). The extended network will bring together academic institutions, archives and professional bodies for the first time. It will establish a new, innovative, international and multidisciplinary collaboration, raising awareness of archival materials and archives with significant holdings of materials related to landscape architecture. Landscape architecture archives preserve the profession's legacy, and this project will demonstrate how archiving and archival research contributes to a thorough understanding of the historical development of the built environment professions, and how archival documents can contribute to a better understanding of key contemporary issues relating to landscape and public space, such as the climate and biodiversity crises, rapid urbanization, migration, and spatial justice. The network will use the history and legacy of the International Federation of Landscape Architects (IFLA) as a case study project to assess the opportunities international networks hold in historic research and to communicate historic research to different audiences. Established in Cambridge in 1948, IFLA today represents 77 national associations and its mission to create 'globally sustainable and balanced living environments for the benefit of humanity worldwide', could not be more relevant. Its approaching 75th anniversary makes it timely to assess its contribution throughout the decades. This proposed international network will create a collaboration between the main European archives with significant holdings of landscape architectural materials, and educators, researchers as well as third-party organisations.They will consolidate and disseminate the shared history of IFLA, and, through understanding its history, assess its role for the future. It is only through building and maintaining an international and interdisciplinary network that this objective can be achieved that respects the dynamics of a continuously changing landscape, an evolving profession and their histories. By building and contributing to a collective memory, the network will support landscape research and education, deepen the understanding of problems regarding current spatial interventions and increase insight into heritage issues, to both professionals and, indirectly, the general public, to be able to answer to the specific perspectives on and interests in managing current and future landscapes.
