The bdla sees itself as a network of landscape architects for professional dialog and as a forum for collegial cooperation.
In addition, the association and its members are involved in many external networks and institutions.
At national level, the bdla is continuously involved in umbrella associations and other inter-association structures. These include, for example, the Association of German Architects' and Planners' Associations. The bdla and its members are regularly involved in informal competence networks on current topics. Cooperation is also maintained in the area of further training with ministries, universities and associations.
At an international level, the bdla is active in the International Federation of Landscape Architects IFLA and IFLA Europe, in addition to the Federal Chamber of Architects. The IFLA is the only association representing landscape architects worldwide and in Europe.

International Federation of Landscape Architects IFLA
The IFLA is the only association representing landscape architects worldwide. Its aim is to coordinate the activities of member organizations on global issues. As a non-profit organization, landscape architects from all continents are involved in the IFLA on a voluntary basis. In addition to the global level, it is divided into four regional organizations (European Region, Americas Region, Asian and Pacific Region, Africa and Middle East Region). According to the IFLA mission, the professional field of landscape architecture is to be strengthened and, in particular, the "best practice" of landscape architecture is to be promoted. The skills of landscape architects and the importance of their planning activities are presented to the public. The IFLA defines itself as a global network for the professional exchange of ideas and information. The IFLA maintains close relationships with UNESCO, UN-Habitat, IUCN, ICOMOS and the Council of Europe. The bdla has been a member of IFLA since 1954.

IFLA Europe. The European Region of IFLA
The associations of landscape architects from the member countries of the Council of Europe (COE) are organized in IFLA Europe. IFLA Europe emerged from the EFLA (European Foundation for Landscape Architecture). The EFLA was founded in 1989 and the bdla was a founding member. The common goal is to develop an active network for landscape architecture in Europe. In particular, the IFLA Europe is concerned with ensuring and developing a high standard of quality in training and professional practice. One of IFLA Europe's tasks is to promote academic education throughout Europe and to strengthen professional exchange in Europe. Another focus is to represent the interests of landscape architects vis-à-vis the EU and, in particular, to influence European policy relevant to the profession.
