LABASH SEED FUND

During LABash 2021, the host students at Cornell University wanted to address the inequities within the profession and the many barriers to participate in landscape architecture. They invited speakers to address ways to properly engage communities, asked firms to speak about their equity, diversity, and inclusion initiatives, and have taken advantage of the virtual format to make LABash as affordable and accessible as possible. However, they did not want these considerations to end after the 2021 conference but to continue them through the coming years. 

 

The LABash Conference is excited to launch the LABash Seed Fund, a fund that will help students with financial needs attend LABash in the future as funding allows. The Seed Fund will make LABash a more accessible, equitable, and enjoyable experience for landscape architecture students everywhere.
