AlpPlan workshop & general assembly

AlpPlan workshop “Advancing Green Infrastructure in the Alpine Region”

At the invitation of the Research Unit Land Policy and land Management Research at TU Wien, AlpPlan met in Vienna on 7 and 8 November 2022. 22 participants were present and 18 joined virtually. Considering the qualities and functions of Green Infrastructure (GI) in planning processes and documents is becoming increasingly relevant in political strategies. In practice, however, there are still ambiguities or deficits in the concrete operationalisation and implementation of GI at local and regional level. Developing methods and proposals for implementation represents an important task for the Alpine spatial planning network AlpPlan.
