Landscape Policy Partnerships
Centre for Landscape project ‘Landscape Policy Partnerships - developing meaningful collaborations for effective policy impact’
The Centre for Landscape is pleased to announce a new project and programme of activity, focused on landscape policy.
This project will highlight how policy is developed, implemented, and reviewed at an organisational level, and explore how universities can inform landscape policy through partnerships focused on dialogue, knowledge-sharing and research for mutual benefit.
The project will establish the Centre as a knowledge bank for evidence-led landscape policy information, and will identify strategies to connect landscape research to policy through the development of partnerships – working across multiple disciplines and scales, and geared towards addressing current and future global challenges. Outputs will include the launch of an online bank of policy briefing notes informed by landscape research projects and collaborations at Newcastle University. We look forward to sharing more details of this policy project and its partnership networking events, and also look forward to building effective relationships across the university and with existing and new external partners through this process.
The project is led by Centre for Landscape Co-Directors Prof. Maggie Roe and Prof. Sam Turner, with Dr Charlotte Veal and Dr Maria Duggan. Eleanor Harrison, PhD Archaeology Student in History, Classics and Archaeology, has been appointed as the Centre for Landscape Intern for 2023-2024 to work on this project.
