PUBLIC SPEAKING & WORKSHOPS
Architect Amos Brandeis is a well-known speaker at international events, usually the keynote speaker. He gives presentations on different themes: restoration planning, environmental, urban and regional planning, and other fields. At times, he will talk about his approach and conclusions, at other times, he presents development projects his firm has planned and sometimes a combination of the two. His talks present a comprehensive approach to the solutions of environmental problems and the vision for planning environmental projects as a bridge between people.
When Amos Brandeis gives a presentation about the Alexander River Restoration Project or about river restoration in general, he places emphasis on the unique collaboration between Israelis and Palestinians with regard to the severe environmental problems that know no political borders. All of his presentations are based on a large variety of high-quality photos from his archive. A typical presentation lasts between 30-60 minutes, but it can be made longer or shorter, according to the circumstances or the client. It is also possible to arrange workshops in small groups, based on a presentation given by architect Amos Brandeis and moderated by him. Workshops of this type need their goals to be defined in advance and a thorough advance preparation. To date, presentations have been given in five continents.
