The National Tree Seed Centre (NTSC) and Indigenous Seed Collection Program (ISCP) are working together to support ex situ conservation of tree seed, forestry research, and supporting Indigenous led paths to conservation of species of cultural, medicinal, spiritual, and economic importance.  The presentation will outline the work being conducted at the NTSC, covering sampling methodology for conservation seed collections, current genebank status, and collaborations. It will also cover the ISCP, its importance, approaches, and impact with Indigenous communities across the country.

Go back to school this fall with landADAPT

This fall, we're inviting members to make landADAPT part of their back to school routine.

Starting September 8 and running weekly, we'll spotlight one module from the self-paced landADAPT online course per week on social media. Register for the course, work through the modules alongside your CSLA colleagues (approximately 1 hour of training per week), and share your reflections, questions, and the key takeaway messages with us online.

Asia Living Expo 2027 will take place from 15–17 May 2027 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, China. The exhibition brings together global manufacturers, suppliers, designers, and industry professionals to explore the latest innovations in outdoor living, landscape solutions, garden environments, outdoor structures, and innovative solutions for residential and commercial spaces.

Landscape professionals are invited to discover new ideas, connect with international industry experts, and explore emerging trends shaping residential and commercial outdoor spaces.

The Canadian Conservation Institute is hosting an advanced professional development workshop “Crime Prevention Though Environmental Design (CPTED) for Heritage Institutions”. We welcome landscape architects who have worked on, or will be working on a project related to heritage institutions, to apply to join us in Ottawa from November 17 to 19, 2026, to discover how to discourage undesirable activity at heritage institutions and make sure staff and visitors feel safe, while enhancing security for collections.

Working Together is More Important Than Ever

Across Canada, climate impacts are increasing. People in communities, sectors, and organizations are coming up with solutions that strengthen resilience at the local, regional, and national levels. Adaptation Canada 2026 will build on this momentum and provide a whole-of-society approach to guide us into the future.

Register for Adaptation Canada 2026 to bring your perspective, insights, questions, and solutions to the conversation.

Leading with Landscape is a public conference and exhibition that examines Toronto's waterfront as a globally
recognized example of landscape-led urban transformation. It positions landscape architecture as critical ecological
and cultural infrastructure, capable of shaping the 21st-century city.

As cities confront the growing challenges of climate change, biodiversity loss and rapid urbanisation, the future of the built environment depends on learning from nature rather than working against it. International Design Conversation 002 brings together internationally recognised leaders in landscape architecture, biomimicry, green infrastructure and urban ecology to explore how nature-inspired thinking can shape healthier, more resilient and regenerative cities.

As cities continue to expand and the impacts of climate change intensify, the integration of nature into the built environment has become one of the defining challenges—and opportunities—of contemporary design. From green roofs and living walls to biodiversity-positive buildings, urban forests and nature-based infrastructure, living architecture is reshaping how our cities perform environmentally, socially and economically.

Don’t miss your chance to earn three HSW credits in one focused August session. Our ProSeries: Summer Learning Lineup delivers three back-to-back continuing education courses on timely, emerging topics in landscape architecture.

The Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) invites you to participate in an upcoming virtual Public Infrastructure Engineering Vulnerability Committee (PIEVC) Protocol Training. The PIEVC Protocol provides a structured methodology for assessing the vulnerability of infrastructure to current and future climate conditions. Developed to support practitioners in assessing and addressing climate-related risks, the Protocol has been used on hundreds of infrastructure assets in Canada and globally to help improve resilience and support long-term decision-making.
