Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe Award

"The IFLA Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe Award is the highest honor that the International Federation of Landscape Architects can bestow upon a landscape architect. The Award recognizes a living landscape architect whose lifetime achievements and contributions have had a unique and lasting impact on the welfare of society and the environment and on the promotion of the profession of landscape architecture"  (IFLA)

This year one of my highly respected Hungarian professors, Mihály Mőcsényi, has been awarded whose work has inspired hundreds of landscape architecture students, widened our view about the profession, and shaped our way of thinking.
