Foreword

This issue of Landscape Review continues to traverse the discursive space between practice and research in Oceania by foregrounding contemporary knowledge systems in three contexts. The first paper is a critical provocation about what non-Indigenous designers could or should develop as decolonising know-how for our discipline and profession. The other two papers provide valuable examples of new knowledge and ideas gained from a ‘design thinking’ methodology around peri-urban land-use possibilities and from complex knowledge and proposed actions around flood mitigation strategies based on predicted climate change scenarios.
