Abstract:
The IALE 2025 European Landscape Ecology Congress, titled “Landscape Perspectives in a
Rapidly Changing World,” was held from September 1–5, 2025, on the premises of the Faculty
of Natural Sciences, Comenius University in Bratislava. The Congress was organized by the
Institute of Landscape Ecology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with the
Faculty of Natural Sciences of Comenius University, IALE-Europe, Czech Society for Landscape
Ecology (IALE-CZ), and Mendel University in Brno. Patronage over the Congress was granted
by Mr. Juraj Droba, Chairman of the Bratislava Self-Governing Region, and Mr. Matúš Vallo,
Mayor of the City of Bratislava.
The thematic framework of the Congress reflected the current rapid developments and
changes in all areas of human activity, which have brought new challenges for landscape
ecology —including the implementation of new technologies and the growing role of artificial
intelligence in addressing landscape-ecological topics. At the same time, it emphasized
opportunities for applying this knowledge in a dynamically changing world and highlighted its
potential impact on the future development and sustainability of landscape-ecological
research.
