Design's Diaspora, A Landscape Futures Symposium: October 28th-30th, 2005

This symposium explores design responses to movements of people on a global scale including tourism, migration, and diaspora driven by poverty and political instability. How do changes in population and social dynamics affect the natural and built environment, and emergent aesthetic forms? What are the implications of shifting social dynamics for the design and planning professions? How are policy-makers, citizen activists, and designers responding to these forces around the world? This symposium will bring together leading thinkers, practitioners and artists to explore such questions.
