The increased focus on qualitative values in landscape mitigation combined with the provision of facilities and landscapes necessary to build knowledge, skills and resources will result in landscapes and spaces that facilitate the empowerment of communities as stewards of the environment in the face of globalized industrialization and decreased federal/provincial funding. / February 2016 Landscape Architecture Urban Design Landscape Planning Environmental Design Prairies Canadian Oil Energy East Pipeline Infrastructure Recreation Scientific Research Environmental Impact Assessment Landscape Mitigation
