In the fall, the Landscape Architecture Foundation accepted project proposals for its Case Study Investigation (CSI) program. Just recently, the CSI teams and projects were announced for 2019. The Fellows receive a $1,000 honorarium, and $9,000 will also be given to support the student Research Assistant. The teams will develop "methods to quantify environmental, social and economic benefits," and their Case Study Briefs will be published in LAF's Landscape Performance Series. The CSI program will take place from February to August 2019.
