The new generation of landscape architects and spatial planners of Wageningen University and Research understand complex environmental challenges, when shaping and creating the landscape in which we live. We perceive the landscape as a complex, socio-ecological system, that asks for an integrative approach to interventions. That is why we combine spatial planning with landscape architecture.
