CSLA Advocacy and Strategic Affairs, PEI

Hope Parnham is a landscape architect and planner from Charlottetown, PEI. Hope is no stranger to the CSLA. She has been involved with the Association for over 15 years in various roles. As a student, she assisted with the administration of the Awards of Excellence program (2007-2010), was subsequently a founding member of the CSLA Committee on Climate Adaptation (2015-present), was the APALA representative to the Board of Directors (2017-19), and most recently served on the Executive Council (2019-2022), serving as President in 2020-21. Hope has also contributed as a juror to the LACF Annual Grants Program (2017-2022) and for the Governor General’s Award in 2021.  In PEI and Atlantic Canada, Hope’s career has included work in private practice as well as municipal and provincial government roles, with a focus on climate change adaptation, education and outreach. Her work in research, policy development, and advocacy for improved standards in planning and design practice has led to numerous keynote and international speaking engagements, as well as participation in various Federal government and national-level NGO committees and working groups. While she has not had a traditional LA practice in PEI, she recognizes the value of landscape architecture and believes that landscape architects have the opportunity to be changemakers in the 21st century.
