ISAPD creates and collaborates on resources to support access to the architecture, planning, and design fields and to elevate Indigenous knowledge and communities.

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS - CALL TO ACTION: CO-CREATE A FUTURE THAT HEALS LAND AND CULTURE

ISAPD Supports the American Society of Landscape Architect’s 2024 Call to Action: Co-Create a Future that Heals Land and Culture Announced at the ASLA 2024 Conference on Landscape Architecture in Washington, D.C.

The Call to Action was developed by a team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous partners including Julia Watson, Lyla June Johnston, José de Jesús Leal, Katie Riddle, Jared Green, and ISAPD Director, Anjelica S. Gallegos. 

The ASLA invites members to “Respect Indigenous Knowledge, Empower Future Generations, and Engage with ASLA”. They invited members to “help us build an Indigenous landscape architects' network of ASLA members and work in collaboration with groups like the Indigenous Society of Architecture, Planning, and Design”.

ENVISION RESILIENCE - INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS INITIATIVE (IKSI) WORKING SYLLABUS
The Envision Resilience IKSI Working Syllabus provides selected resources on critical Indigenous knowledge systems and narratives of uncommon experiences of place, as a method to bolster climate justice. Principles and case studies of Indigenous sustainability in architecture, design, and programming are presented. The working syllabus, launched in August 2023, is a framework to add analyzed resources as the needs and sites change for each Challenge in the future.

ISAPD supports the Envision Resilience Indigenous Knowledge Systems Initiative. IKSI embodies innovative and effective knowledge sharing to equip individuals and communities with principles and design solutions that elevate all architecture and related fields to embrace land and environment as fundamental for living.
