About this Event
International Womxn’s Week includes a weeklong series of events organized by Womxn in Design that gather members of the GSD community to learn about and challenge notions of gender and power from within the framework of design.
Join us for a dialogue between Princess Adedoyin Talabi Faniyi of the Osun Sacred Grove in Osogbo, Nigeria, and landscape architect Tarna Klitzner, founder of TKLA in Cape Town, South Africa. The conversation will be moderated by Zoe Marks, Director of the Harvard Center for African Studies.
This event is co-sponsored by the Center for African Studies and organized in coordination with Womxn in Design and Africa GSD. It serves as the keynote event for the conference African Landscape Architectures: Alternative Futures for the Field, which brings together a wide range of landscape practices from across the continent. The two-day hybrid conference highlights the transformative potential of decolonizing design to address social injustices and prepare African cities for the impacts of climate change. Speakers will explore innovative strategies through frameworks such as ecology, adaptation, and materiality that offer alternative futures for African landscapes.
