Coffee morning talk: How resilient landscapes that connect communities with the natural environment are designed

Join us every Thursday morning, either in-person from 10.45am or online from 11am, to hear about new environmental, climate and sustainability research and initiatives from UCD and beyond.

About the presenter

Robert Bourke is practice director of Robert Bourke Architects (RBA) and has been a Design Fellow at UCD School of Architecture, Planning and Environmental Policy since 2013. 

In 2023, he completed the Masters in Advanced Studies (MAS) in Urban and Territorial Design at EPFL Lausanne and ETH Zurich. 

Since then, Robert has been introducing this approach - involving mapping, systems-thinking and cross-disciplinary collaboration - into his teaching and practice under the title of Landscape Systems, a consultancy and research arm of RBA dedicated to designing resilient landscapes that connect communities with the natural environment.
