Ignacio Bunster-Ossa, a design critic in landscape architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design,co-teaches a timely studio course on the Panama Canal with fellow faculty member Anita Berrizbeitia. He talks about the implications of President Donald Trump's threats to take over the Canal, as well as "how a 19th-century symbol of 'ecological triumph' can be transformed into a 21st-century landscape that repairs, reconciles, and reconnects, safeguarding local conditions and aspirations from mounting pressures from ongoing global interests and climate uncertainty."
