Landscape architecture is the design, planning and management of natural and built environments to create sustainable and resilient outdoor spaces that enhance ecological and social health. It involves the application of aesthetic and scientific principles to ensure spaces are functional, beautiful, and socially just, through integrating natural and built environments and the collective memory of a place's history and culture.

Landscape architects lead and coordinate other built environment disciplines, to create outdoor spaces that are adaptable to climate change, ensure the stability of ecosystems, and develop socio-economic improvements for communities.
