Putting the landscape, its care and its transformation at the center of the environmental and cultural debate in Italy and throughout the world. In fact, the landscape is an integral part of the development of a country: it improves the quality of life, makes its regions more attractive and thus favors their economic development. This important objective was the starting point for organizing the 5
3rd IFLA (International Federation of Landscape Architects) World Congress, which will be held in Turin, Italy, from April 20th to April 22nd, 2016. The congress is organized by AIAPP – The Italian Association of Landscape Architecture, representing IFLA in Italy, in collaboration with the City of Turin. The theme chosen for the congress is Tasting the Landscape, understood according to the experiential, sensory and metaphoric meanings held within the word “taste”: meanings that go back to the sensory dimension of places, and that invite us not to forget the emotional and perceptive aspects of the landscape.
