IFLA emerging professionals advocate WORKING GROUP
The Emerging Professionals’ Advocate (EPA) working group is an international working group of young professionals and students of landscape architecture or relevant disciplines established aiming to create a community and integrate the voice of young professionals within IFLA.
The EPA brings and bonds together a community of students and young professionals of landscape architecture by creating network opportunities across the world. Our activities aim to facilitate interaction and communication within the IFLA regions and enable the transfer of knowledge and skills between members.
The goal is the students and young professionals to have an established network where they can get guidance, find out about resources, events and news of the profession and for IFLA to support them across all its regions and build a bridge between professional assets and education.
