The Biourbanism model comprises ten systems\, 5 bio and 5 urban\, allowi ng professionals to identify ways to improve the resilience of cities and places to extreme weather events driven by climate change while delivering economic\, environmental\, and social benefits for communities. \nHosted by the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA)\, Engineers Aus tralia (EA)\, the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA)\, and Stormwater Q ueensland (SQ)\, this event will provide an overview of the Biourbanism mo del and discussion on its relevance for Southeast Queensland cities.

This has driv en some to propose that the planet is entering a new epoch in its geologic al history called the Anthropocene – a point in time where most wild place s have been substantially modified which has driven substantial changes to natural s ystems including the climate.

\nBiou rbanism is an interdisciplinary concept founded on ecological sciences\, l andscape architecture\, and urban design theory. It asserts that cities mu st be considered part of nature in order to address the extent and consequ ences of human impact on the planet. The Biourbanism model comprises ten s ystems\, 5 bio and 5 urban\, allowing professionals to identify ways to im prove the resilience of cities and places to extreme weather events driven by climate change while delivering economic\, environmental\, and social benefits for communities.
\nHosted by the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects ( AILA)\, Engineers Australia (EA)\, the Planning Institute of Australia (PI A)\, and Stormwater Queensland (SQ)\, this event will provide an overview of the Biourbanism model and discussion on its relevance for Southeast Que ensland cities. It will include the following:
