Community Landscapes - Connecting People, Places and Spaces
This Gardens Trust with FOLAR talk will explore the changing role of urban green space professionals with respect to community engagement and how government policy has influenced this. Ian Baggott is the MD of CFP, a Landscape and Heritage consultancy, will explore what connection and engagement mean, what forms they might take, what levels there might be and why they happen. He will also look at who leads, who facilitates and supports, and who does and doesn’t get involved. Ian will illustrate this with examples from his 30 years’ experience in the sector including working with diverse and disconnected communities, contested landscapes and uncomfortable stories.
Time: 18:00 BST
