2024 (73) Sepial Issue: Based on 35th IFLA Europe Conference in Budapest, 17-20 October 2024

The 73rd issue of the 4D Journal of Landscape Architecture and Garden Art is a special issue in honour of the 35th IFLA Europe Conference in Budapest, 17-20 October 2024, and provides an insight into the 40 years of Hungarian landscape architecture between the IFLA Europe Conferences in Hungary, in Siófok in 1984 and Budapest in 2024. The special issue is structured in five major chapters, each of which has been coordinated by a colleague and compiled by several authors with expertise in each of the priority themes. As the length of the journal does not allow for a detailed and exhaustive coverage of each topic, the aim was to provide an overview of the most important changes and developments in planning, research, education and legislation over the last four decades, with a special chapter on volunteering, which also highlights the social significance of landscape architecture.
