The webinars will feature experts from across Canada and a global network who will highlight climate change challenges.An upcoming webinar, which will take place on December 12, 2024, will feature Joanna Eyquem, who will discuss progress and examples of efforts to mainstream consideration of nature-based solutions. This will range from strategic approaches and technical guidance, to integration in municipal management and financial reporting.The CSLA will also curate a series of Canadian case studies, and put a spotlight on adaptive and resilient landscape architecture projects. Case studies will serve as educational tools, bolster CSLAs advocacy efforts, and empower members to make the business case for adaptation measures to their clients and/or target audiences.Additionally, the CSLA is preparing and delivering a new online professional development course to provide members with the latest in climate data, risk assessments, and adaptation strategies to support their practice. The course will include modules catered to landscape architects at various career stages.For more information on the landADAPT program, click here.The post CSLA launches continuing education program on climate change adaptation appeared first on Canadian Architect.

Percy Grainger (18821961) was an Australian-born composer, arranger and pianist who played a prominent role in the revival of interest in British folk music in the early 20th century. Grainger left Australia in 1895 to study at the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt. Between 1901 and 1914 he was based in London, where he established himself first as a society pianist and later as a concert performer, composer and collector of original folk melodies. He met many of the significant figures in European music, forming friendships with Frederick Delius and Edvard Grieg, and became a champion of Nordic music and culture. In 1914, Grainger moved to the United States, where he took citizenship in 1918. He experimented with music machines that he hoped would supersede human interpretation. Although much of his work was experimental and unusual, the piece with which he is most generally associated is his piano arrangement of the folk-dance tune "Country Gardens". This glass negative of Grainger was taken at some point around 19151920.Photograph credit: Bain News Service; restored by Adam Cuerden and MyCatIsAChonkRecently featured: Runion stonechatClimate changeShirley Graham Du BoisArchiveMore featured pictures
