Dear Subscriber,
My name is Kotchakorn Voraakhom, the Chairwoman of the Landscape Without Borders. I am reaching out today for unity and collaboration, to improve our post-pandemic world. As landscape architects, I strongly believe it is our duty as a community to define a New Normal of sustainable cities in which both people and nature can co-exist. I hope this joint effort will enable us to connect and act as the Landscape Without Borders community. Read the full statement here on our new initiative.
Take care and keep in touch.

| In the rapid pace of urban change and the horizontal character of automobile-based urbanism, humans have created a new habitat for ourselves and carved out new, but not necessarily available habitat for wildlife.
Co-existence is a slippery notion. How can we address “land-sharing” versus “land-sparing”, when it comes to exploring ways to keep the risk of conflicts in shared landscapes at tolerable levels? |
