Date: 8/4/2022 - 8/31/2022
Type: Competitions / Awards
Description:
The purpose of this award is to aid in the professional development and success of emerging and mid-career leaders in our profession by covering the costs associated with attendance at the Conference on Landscape Architecture in San Francisco.
The 2022 ASLA Conference on Landscape Architecture will offer more than 100 educational opportunities, allowing attendees to fulfill their professional development requirements in four days (November 11-14).
Nominees/applicants must be early to mid-career (in first ten years of practice) who do not have access or support to attend the conference otherwise. The scholarship intends to promote gender justice and help level the playing field for designers of underrepresented genders in the profession. As such, preference will be given to non-cis males, including cis women, trans women, trans men, and non-binary people. Given our focus on early to mid-career professionals, currently enrolled students are ineligible.
Nominators/applicants are encouraged to submit the name of a colleague or self-nominate.
