Landscape Institute launches new five-year Corporate Strategy

The Landscape Institute (LI) has launched a new five-year Corporate Strategy, focused on supporting landscape professionals in their vital work delivering long-term value for people, place and nature. With a clear purpose and new Strategic Outcomes, the Strategy sets a strong, positive direction for the LI.

The Strategy, developed through member consultation, diverse workshops, sessions with the LI’s Council and with approval by the LI Board, sets a new Vision of a world with enriching, resilient landscapes where people and nature flourish. And a clear purpose for the LI and our members in creating that Vision: Through the art and science of landscape design, planning and management, we deliver wellbeing, sustainability and delight, by enhancing and connecting people, place and nature.

To enable our members to fulfil that purpose, the Strategy sets three Strategic Outcomes that we will achieve by 2030:

• Landscape-led approaches are recognised as essential to deliver sustainable solutions to societal and nature needs. 

• Landscape professionals of today and tomorrow work to the highest professional standards, with the expert skills and knowledge needed to design, plan, and manage landscapes that enhance quality of life. 

• The Landscape Institute defines and nurtures an inclusive, trusted community of professionals that lead positive change now and for the future. 

Equality, diversity and inclusion and climate and biodiversity are cross cutting issues that will be addressed in all LI work.
