ALC Early Career Grants provide an opportunity for someone to attend the two day Australian Landscape Conference (ALC) in 2027 who is relatively new to the profession of landscape architecture, garden design, architecture, horticulture, landscape construction or other associated area. In doing so, the opportunity sows a seed and invests in the next generation of professionals.
The Grant provides a entry to both days of the ALC to eligible early career professionals and full-time (3rd year and beyond) students. The funding makes the ALC a reality for carefully selected recipients who otherwise may not be in a position to attend.
As an ALC enthusiast, you know the conference will have ground-breaking effects on a person’s thinking and future direction. You may be giving the next rising star the headstart they need or retaining someone in the profession who needs a little encouragement.
The ALC is a unique event in Australia. There are only a handful of other conferences throughout the world that gather such a truly international digest of speakers who are experts in their field of landscape and garden design that are similar to the ALC.
