Jamie Conway - Jamie Conway

I am a British-born Landscape Architect, now based in Brazil, driven by a passion for bridging ancient wisdom, quantum science, and sustainable design. My approach to environmental solutions is rooted in a deep understanding of the intricate connections between humanity, the cosmos, and the natural world, particularly through the lens of water. I see water not merely as a resource but as a dynamic, interconnected force that shapes our lives and ecosystems.

With over 30 years of experience across continents, I specialize in applying both time-tested indigenous knowledge and contemporary scientific advances to foster sustainable, resilient environments. Whether designing ecosystems or managing large-scale water systems, my work focuses on creating holistic, future-ready solutions—solutions that respect both the ecological complexities and the human systems they support.

In my role as a Partner, Trainer, and Mentor with the NASA GLOBE program, I am excited to share my interdisciplinary knowledge and collaborate with the next generation of STEM professionals. I aim to cultivate young minds that can navigate the complexities of environmental science through the integration of quantum physics, archaeoastronomy, and sustainable water management practices.

Your Relation to Water
For over three decades, I’ve been at the forefront of innovative water management practices, developing sustainable systems for water collection, treatment, reuse, and release. From residential projects to large-scale municipal solutions, my work integrates ecological design principles that ensure harmony between natural systems and human development.

A key achievement in my career was receiving the European Science Federation Innovation Award for creating a sustainable environmental design studio focused on water systems at the municipal level. This studio, initially based in Spain, was relocated to Brazil, where I expanded my research and application of biological and organic filtration techniques for water features, including a groundbreaking project at the El Dhub Design Museum in Barcelona.

Additionally, my collaboration with international partners led to the development and expansion of Natural Swimming Pools (NSPs) and the exploration of the quantum properties of water. This research integrates quantum mechanics and water’s role within environmental systems, allowing me to understand water not only as a fundamental resource but as a medium that connects the microscopic and macroscopic dimensions of our world.

My work continues to explore how ancient knowledge—such as that of the indigenous communities in Brazil and across the globe—can inform modern environmental solutions, particularly in the context of sustainable water management and urban resilience.

Anything Else You Wish to Share
As a member of the Quantum Archaeoastronomy Institute of Brazil, I am excited to further explore the intersection of ancient wisdom, quantum science, and sustainability. By studying the practices of ancient civilizations, we uncover profound insights into how they harmonized with natural systems, especially the role of water in sustaining ecosystems. This research informs my work in environmental design and sustainable development, helping me to create solutions that are as much about connecting with our past as they are about shaping our future.

Through the World Water Community platform, I actively contribute to global discussions on sustainable water solutions, offering insights and support where needed. I am passionate about fostering collaboration across networks like the World Water Lab, EcoRestoration Alliance, and OceansX, creating a dynamic space for innovation and change.

If you are interested in exploring the intersections of sustainability, quantum science, and archaeoastronomy, I look forward to connecting with you and sharing insights. Together, we can push the boundaries of knowledge to create a sustainable, scientifically-informed future for all.
