Rights of Nature: Approaches to Environmental Justice

Rights of Nature: Approaches to Environmental Justice

 

Indigenous communities have lived in harmony with the environment for millennia. Now they have led the creation of the Rights of Nature movement, which recognizes that ecosystems and wildlife have the legal right to exist, flourish, and evolve. Learn from an Indigenous leader, legal and policy expert, and a landscape architecture educator and designer on how to support and embrace this burgeoning global movement from within the field of landscape architecture.

Indigenous Right Relations: Design Alignment Through Cultural Humility Webinar Series - Place, History, and Trauma-Informed Engagement to Build Right Relations

Indigenous Right Relations: Design Alignment Through Cultural Humility Webinar Series

 

Design is more than shaping places; it is about shaping relationships. Every project leaves an imprint on the land, on communities, and on future generations. 

 

Cultural humility is the discipline of approaching that responsibility with curiosity instead of certainty, reciprocity instead of extraction, and accountability instead of intention.

 

Through this four-part webinar series, landscape architects are invited not simply to learn about Indigenous Peoples, but to transform how they practice in service of healthier lands, stronger communities, and enduring right relations. 

The series is led by José de Jesús Leal, FASLA, PLA, Principal and Director, Native Nation Building Studio, MIG, Inc. and Paul Fragua (Pueblo of Jemez), Affil. ASLA, Elder-In-Residence and Director of Native Nations Strategy and Relations, MIG, Inc.

 

Registration for the series is free for all ASLA members.

Webinar: Reduce Stormwater Infrastructure with Porous Pavements
Nov

11:00 AM11:00

Webinar: Reduce Stormwater Infrastructure with Porous Pavements

Stormwater management continues to be a critical concern due to increasingly stringent regulations. Retaining stormwater on-site is the preferred method, but traditional solutions like retention or detention ponds can be expensive, require significant maintenance, and take up valuable land. An innovative alternative is reducing the amount of impermeable surface on the site.

One way to achieve this is through the use of hard-surface porous pavements made of asphalt and concrete, which can be expensive and time-consuming to install. However, rigid and flexible plastic porous pavement systems offer a low-cost and easy-to-install alternative that can handle demanding load requirements. For example, Presto Geosystems’ porous pavers can be filled with either vegetation or aggregate to meet your project needs.

In this webinar, we will delve deeper into the benefits of using porous pavement systems for stormwater management. Our expert presenter will discuss how these systems work, their durability and cost-effectiveness, and the various infill options available. We will also provide examples of successful projects that have implemented this innovative solution.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify the key design principles and sustainability benefits of porous pavement systems for stormwater management.

  • Evaluate the performance of rigid and flexible porous pavements under different infill materials and traffic-loading conditions, and select the appropriate system for your project.

  • Apply best practices for utilizing porous pavements for a variety of project conditions.

  • Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of how porous pavements detain stormwater runoff and their effectiveness in reducing runoff volume and pollutants.
