Teaching Environmental Humanities through Landscape Architecture

Teaching Environmental Humanities Through Landscape Architecture offers a week-long immersive workshop in Washington, D.C., designed for K-12 educators to explore landscape architecture and its intersections with history, culture, and environmental stewardship. Participants will visit significant landmarks, including the Lincoln Memorial, National Arboretum, and Howard University, engaging with experts to develop a framework for integrating landscape-centered, place-based learning into humanities curricula. Through these experiences, educators will gain valuable tools to teach topics such as sustainability, social justice, and cultural heritage, inspiring students to connect with the world around them.
