Announcements

This international conference will address how to improve understanding of the European Landscape Convention (ELC) by presenting ideas generated in national competitions popularizing the ELC and by presenting the project results. We invite researchers and practitioners to exchange research issues and practice in all aspects of the ELC! The conference will popularise the aims of the ELC by presentations, lectures and workshops. The conference is hosted by the Estonian University of Life Sciences in association with the E-CLIC project (www.e-clicproject.eu) as a two-day event kicking off with a field visit to see Baltic landscapes through the lenses of the European Landscape Convention.
