EXPLORING ‘MIDDLE-UP’ CO-GOVERNANCE TOOLS IN DRIVING THE TRANSFORMATION OF URBAN OPEN SPACES TOWARDS THE ADOPTION OF NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS IN MALTA

Sarah Scheiber

University of Malta

Appropriately planned and designed urban open spaces have the potential to contribute to sustainable urban areas. Planning for green infrastructure is recognised as a nature-based solution for achieving this. Despite this, urban open spaces in Malta are not acting as green infrastructure. In the local context, the potential barriers and implications that hinder moving towards the implementation of green infrastructure planning approaches can be organised into three main themes: socio-cultural tendencies, lack of resources, and inadequacies relating to planning and governance systems. Spatial planning and in-place planning instruments play an important role but are simply not enough. Ultimately, more inclusiveness into decision-making structures must be successfully demanded and achieved.

International best practice illustrates the potential role of grass roots initiatives. However, in a context where social demand is lacking and apathy towards common good, or activism in the voicing of opinions is evident, can such grass roots movements be the answer? In a socio-political context which lacks real commitment also stemming from socio-cultural tendencies which do not prioritise or appreciate the value of green open spaces, what are the answers? On the other hand, due the lack of real political commitment and the resultant lack of ownership which ensues, a top-down approach is not the answer in modern day planning. The answer, thus, lies in exploring the potential for ‘middle-up’ co-governance approaches as a way to operationalize integration and multifunctionality. These include active citizen approaches that are local but with the support of local governments/municipalities such that their efforts contribute to more strategic aim. However, if such support is lacking how can it be instigated?

A more collaborative approach of a 'middle-up' nature is advocated as a mechanism for driving change. In Malta, the platform, Dawra Madwarna: Connecting People, Connecting Places, can be seen as one such middle-up approach. Founded in March 2021, this organisation is an ever-growing network of interdisciplinary professionals working voluntarily to act as a catalyst for adopting more nature-based solutions such as a green infrastructure planning approach in driving the transformation of urban open spaces. Seeking ways to engage with the public and stakeholders at large, through research, proactive thought, co-leadership and collaboration with society, the platform aims to promote a new model for the planning and design of urban open spaces. The author is co-founder of this initiative and this talk will therefore present reflections based on the activities developed by the platform to date which may be seen as an example of such middle-up approaches.

# UNPACKING SELF-GOVERNANCE INITIATIVES OF URBAN NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS IN CHILE: THE CASE OF SANTIAGO

A shift 'from government to governance' in the management of urban nature-based solutions (NBS) has been reported across Europe with an increase of citizens engagement in green spaces governance. However, NBS governance, especially self-governance initiatives, has been researched far less in Latin America, despite being one of the most urbanized regions on the planet and a biodiversity hotspot.

Green space planning and implementation in Chile are normally conducted by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning and municipalities through a very exclusionary and top-down process. This process has produced strong inequitable patterns in the distribution and quality of green and blue spaces, as well as a lack of context-sensitive design and management that lead to a poor community engagement and sense of place. As a response, in the last decade, citizens, NGOs and other civil society groups have become increasingly involved in the restoration, conservation and development of green spaces.

This study explores the spatial-temporal trends, aims, and socioeconomic of NBS self-governance initiatives in Chile using Santiago as a case study. The main enabling factors and challenges that this type of initiative face were also evaluated using in-depth interviews with selected self-governance initiatives. We identified more than 90 self-governance initiatives through an online survey and an active search on social media platforms. Most of them are related to urban gardening and around 20% work to improve the conditions of parks and squares that are not well maintained by the local government. Moreover, they tend to have an ephemeral nature (around 30% exists for less than five years).

These initiatives are relevant for participants as spaces for social cohesion, education, recreation and the supply of food in the case of urban gardens. Benefits related to air and water purification, biodiversity and aesthetics seem to be less important for the people involved. Unlike in other Global North cities, these initiatives tend to emerge spontaneously without institutional support of local governments or specific programs. Among the key challenges for the implementation and maintenance of NBS self-governance initiatives are participation, legal recognition and funding.

Although, there are a few self-governance initiatives contributing to relevant changes at the city level, they are most relevant as a way of contesting the prevailing forms of planning, implementation and design of NBS in Santiago. They shed light on how to make these processes more inclusive as well as on how to develop NBS better rooted in the social and ecological fabric of the neighbourhoods. The result of this study contributes to a better understanding and awareness of the growing number of NBS self-governance initiatives in Chilean cities, especially in Santiago, and to promote and include them in the co-production and transformative changes required to ensure a more just and sustainable city.

# SUCCESS FACTORS AND BARRIERS IN GREEN CITY CO-DESIGN. A CASE STUDY OF THE CITY OF ŁÓDŹ (CENTRAL POLAND)

Łódź is a typical European post-industrial and post-socialist city that struggles with environmental (heat waves, flash floods, smog), social (aging, depopulation, gentrification) and spatial (neglected and dense city center) challenges. These problems coexist with low availability, accessibility and attractiveness of urban greenery. Due to the limited space available to establish new, large, formal urban green spaces, efforts to improve the residents' quality of life needs to make the best use of small, local interventions, including nature-based solutions (NBS). Identifying the factors that determine the success and failure of implementation of the blue-green city concept, as well as those enabling shared responsibility for maintenance of existing and introduced greenery becomes crucial. In 2010 the City of Łódź adopted the concept of Blue-Green Network as a core of the life-sustaining system. Since then, a number of activities have been launched. These include top-down (initiated by the Municipality), bottom-up (initiated by either civil society or NGOs activists) and intermediate - facilitation and networking (led by scientists) activities, in order to: (1) gather information about stakeholders' needs regarding the functionality the city, (2) accessibility of blue and green infrastructure and its services, (3) role played by formal and informal green spaces, and (4) the most appreciated NBS types. Such tools were tested by the means of surveys, co-design workshops and interviews. Going through the subsequent failures and successes of our own and our collaborators and counterparts - residents, local activists, and city officials, we learned new lessons related to people's motivations, drivers of stakeholders engagement, and effectiveness/deficiencies of participatory tools. The presentation will share the experiences gained from this one-decade long process of urban green space design towards a sustainable city.

## Description

Since the EU GI Strategy as adopted in 2013, GI planning has gained attention on the policy agenda. Further momentum is given by the European Green Deal. In this context also the role of nature-based solution has been gain emphasis on how to best contribute to transition towards sustainability.

This symposium aims to bring together multiple perspectives on green infrastructure (GI) planning and NBS applications in cities and beyond, regarding methodological approaches to mapping, assessment or valuation of services and benefits, as well as the novel toolboxes to support more integrated implementation across cultural and ecological contexts.

# ENHANCING GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORKS THROUGH NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS: AN ASSESSMENT OF CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES IN A HIGH-DENSITY URBAN AREA

Mario Balzan

Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology

Nature-based solutions (NBS) in cities can be prioritised to expand existing green infrastructure while contributing to multiple sustainable development goals simultaneously. NBS have been used to address key societal challenges, including climate resilience, natural hazards, urbanisation and environmental pollution, inequalities in availability and access to green space, biodiversity and ecosystem service declines and public health concerns. However, various challenges remain, and recent reviews have identified the vague interpretation of NBS, the limited availability of examples of NBS implementation that includes stakeholder involvement, and the lack of quantitative and measurable targets or mandatory standards at the scale of implementation.

This presentation provides an overview of recent work carried out in Malta as part of the Horizon 2020 ReNature project on the planning and use of nature-based solutions to increase the quality and quantity of green infrastructure while addressing key challenges. Based on interviews and detailed conversations with stakeholders, we categorise barriers and opportunities for NBS implementation as falling into two main categories and are either political or knowledge based. Based on this analysis, we present a strategy that may be used at local scales to develop interdisciplinary collaborations, address existing knowledge gaps that hamper the effective implementation of NBS principles, and guide NBS co-creation and knowledge integration for improved NBS design and impact assessment. This strategy is tested within ReNature for the small Mediterranean island state of Malta, which is characterised by rapid urbanisation and strong climate-related impacts. Actions are carried out to address multifaceted societal challenges, develop the evidence base through knowledge integration and participatory methods applied at the scale of implementation, and inform NBS implementation through multidisciplinary impact assessment tools. This strategy can be applied to promote long-term collaboration across the science, policy, business and societal interfaces, whilst using implementation-oriented tools and methodologies to address existing knowledge gaps limiting NBS uptake and effectiveness.

SOCIAL ASPECTS OF PRO-ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES IN POLISH SUBURBS

The research on suburban zones that has been carried out for many years allows us to draw interesting findings about their character and the changes taking place within them. This warrants a supposition that, as in the case of urban space, suburban zones are predestined to become smart spaces. A smart city, as proposed by Komninos (2019), is understood broadly, also as an urban region whose second component besides a big city is a suburban zone. However, while new technologies are inherently present in cities as centres of innovation, their spread may be much slower and much more diverse in suburbs which have been developing in Poland only since the system transition. The data forming the basis for the conclusions and insights was produced by a nationwide survey conducted in early 2021.

In this study we tackle the social aspects of new technologies, in particular those related to the
environmental context. Firstly, we ask what pro-environmental technologies have been developed in
the suburban communes in the context of the model of governance. Secondly, we analyze the
development of pro-environmental technologies in Polish households. We have shown that more
innovative model of governance is more often associated with the presence of pro-environmental
technologies. In the more traditional model of governance the presence of the technologies is more
rare. It can be quite problematic because according to the old and new inhabitants of Polish suburbs
pro-environmental technologies are highly evaluated. They determine the commune's image, its
long-term development, quality of life. In the long-term perspective they will also shape the
landscape of suburbs.

# POLLINATORS OF THE ORIENTAL PARK OF THE CITY OF PORTO. DESIGNING ECOLOGICAL MAINTENANCE TOWARD BIODIVERSITY

Cláudia Oliveira Fernandes · Catarina Patoilo Teixeira · Maria João Martins · Sónia Ferreira

University of Porto

Green infrastructure and its constituent elements, urban green spaces (UGS), are established as fundamental for the ecological balance of cities and for the physical and mental health of their populations. Ecosystem services provided by urban green spaces have been extensively investigated and demonstrated, but some disservices have also been documented. Among the most frequent disservices are maintenance costs, irrigation, use of fossil fuels, and contamination by agrochemicals, including pesticides. Most of these disservices are related to the excess of lawns in UGS, especially in areas not tailored for active recreation.

UGS are man-made ecosystems frequently thriving in a delicate ecological balance, thus much prone to pests and diseases. These issues have gained relevance with some insect related plant pathologies reaching worrying proportions with significant ecological, economic, and landscape impacts. If, on the one hand, we are witnessing an increase in populations of harmful insects, we are also witnessing a decline of beneficial insects, namely pollinators and biocontrol agents. The decline of these populations has been seen as one of the most serious ecological crises of our times.

How to face the mentioned challenges and contribute to a more multifunctional, resilient, healthy, and aesthetically more pleasant green infrastructure?

In the context of promoting the Oriental park of the city of Porto as a potentiating element of the ecological and social dynamics of the eastern part of the city of Porto, the project Oriental Park of the City of Porto: Laboratory for Biodiversity and Landscape was created. This project aims to enable this park to promote and disseminate the natural and scenic values of the Porto Metropolitan Area, becoming a privileged stage for the enjoyment and appropriation of natural values and the development of environmental education activities both by the school population of the surrounding area, as well as by visitors to the park.

In the implementation phase, taking place in 2021-2022, we worked in an interconnected way with components linked to three areas of knowledge: landscape architecture, botany and entomology. The approach will therefore be conducted by a multidisciplinary team, involving national researchers, international consultants, and local partners. The work focus on the implementation of practices for the differentiated maintenance of herbaceous coverings, promoting biodiversity, and with a special focus on creating conditions for the attraction and sustainability of communities of pollinating insects. The diversity of these insect communities are being inventoried and monitored using the EU Pollinator Monitoring Scheme.

The project includes pivotal collaboration with local organizations, among which the Porto City Council stands out, which formally supports the project and actively participates by adjusting management practices, in close collaboration and guidance from the research team.

# WARSAW VERNACULAR FRONT GARDENS AS A MISSING SUBURBAN PUBLIC SPACE

Green areas are important not only due to the climate crisis but also due to sanitary comfort. In the growing role of greenery in maintaining the quality of the living environment in the city, with the persistent tendency of the urban sprawl (Low, 2008; Pařil et al., 2021), the role of single-family housing and private gardens attached to them seem to be underestimated. Private plots with gardens constitute 11.5% of the area of the Warsaw agglomeration (BDOT10k). It is over five times more than Warsaw's public parks and squares (Sikorski et al., 2021). For comparison, the garden area in Stockholm is 16%, and in UK cities 22-27% (Colding et al., 2006; Dewaelheyns et al., 2018).

The work aimed to show that vernacular front gardens (VFG) can act as a missing public space and at the same time have the attributes of public green space, providing ecosystem services (ES). Methods of our research – an inventory of the attributes of VFGs and a survey with garden designers let us confirm these assumptions. The basis for building periurban streetscape in single-family housing estates is the visual inclusiveness of VFGs. They provide all ES groups, serving a representational function and both natural and recreational and even the production of edible plants. Streets in residential sites, because of VGF, can be treated as real green public spaces creating a type of green area accessible not only to owners but also to pedestrian eyes.

# THE ACCESSIBILITY OF PUBLIC URBAN GREEN AREAS IN SELECTED TOWNS OF THE GDAŃSK-GDYNIA-SOPOT METROPOLITAN AREA

Barbara Korwel-Lejkowska

University of Gdańsk

Green infrastructure (GI), as a network of high quality natural and semi-natural areas, is an essential element for the proper functioning of the city and largely affects the quality of life of its inhabitants. Well-planned, cared for and evenly distributed in the city's tissue, green infrastructure elements constitute its natural system. Simultaneously – as clearly demonstrated by the situation caused by the COVID19 pandemic – there is a strong social need to stay in public spaces developed with greenery. The process of cities development do not always entail the creation of new green areas, hence the access of residents to such places is varied, and the green areas themselves are often isolated from each other. The Gdańsk-Gdynia-Sopot Metropolitan Area (GGSMA) in northern Poland covers cities created in heterogeneous environmental conditions, which determined their original layout, and thus also the location of green areas.

The objective of this study is to assess the accessibility of selected public urban green areas in chosen GGSMA cities, resulting from their current location in the city, with the simultaneous identification of areas without such access, and identification of their types. The following methods will be used: spatial modeling with the use of GIS software (MapInfo/QGIS), statistical methods and field studies (local vision), mainly to verify and update digital data. Basic digital data has been obtained from the Database of Topographic Objects in the scale of 1:10,000 (BDOT10k), made available by the Central Office of Geodesy and Cartography (2021 data). The assessment will be performed for public green spaces, covering an area over 0.55 ha. The results will be related to the character of the building development located in the zone of the greatest accessibility.

This research has started in 2022, spring, and it is planned to the end of 2023. This is a pilot project, and the next goals are: (1) recognizing residents' needs for accessibility to green spaces and their characteristics, (2) identifying plans and opportunities for creating new green infrastructure elements (especially parks) in light of strategic documents and the planning situation in cities, and (3) identifying existing or potential connectivity with other GI elements of cities. The issues raised are in line with the current trend of research on green infrastructure in small and medium-sized cities in Europe.

# KEYLINE PLANNING AND ITS POTENTIAL ADOPTION IN WATER SENSITIVE URBAN DESIGN AND PLANNING

Kaan Ozgun

Özyeğin University

The spatiality and continuum of surface water show an ephemeral attribute because of the nature of cloudburst events. Overland flooding aka flash floods in an urban catchment is caused by several factors which have not been well-explored and remain hidden from landscape planning and urban design perspective in Australia. While efforts to integrate water management into urban environments – aka Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) – began in the early 1990s, holistic urban catchment planning is still in its infant stages. It is only recently that notions such as urban liveability, daylighting underground infrastructure, and multi-functional public spaces have been included on the WSUD agenda, and most projects, as well as the whole inventory of WSUD interventions, are scattered at the lot, precinct, neighborhood scale, but remain somewhat disconnected at the catchment scale. This raises a crucial question about whether an urban physical network system can connect such interventions at these scales, creating more liveable spaces. Meanwhile, urban development, by definition urban spatial transformation has been so far progressed regardless of the continuum and spatiality of surface water.

Thus, the paper investigates the potential adoption of keyline planning – an Australian rural land and water management technique – into WSUD using digital mapping tools such as GIS and environmental design practices. Developed by Percival Alfred Yeomans in the late 1940s, the ‘keyline planning’ addresses the drought conditions in rural landscapes. The essence of the technique is basically about exploiting the gravitational energy of rural catchments and moving water from higher to lower elevations strategically. The technique slows down the velocity of stormwater, minimizes soil erosion, distributes surface stormwater evenly, and creates opportunities for harvesting and storage with conveyance and key dams throughout the landscape.

Norman Creek urban catchment in Brisbane at Subtropical Southeast Queensland is selected as a case study that has a cyclic flood and drought climate pattern observed over a hundred years. By using various urban, environmental, and socio-economic spatial data such as a high-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and a hydrological overland flow path analysis, green spaces, existing and past water bodies, road networks, land-use, development zones, groundwater table, aquifer types, the proposed method locates the most suitable areas to apply keyline principles. The keyline outcomes are then refined and turned into a plan presenting two design typologies, interconnected urban wetlands, and reclaimed creeks.

The paper demonstrates a new method through adopting an agricultural water management practice into WSUD. A possible future path is to translate knowledge from keyline planning practice sets of rules, key features in topography, and each step in the process of labor-intensive analysis into scripts and computer algorithms.

# FOSTERING THE RESILIENCY OF URBAN LANDSCAPE THROUGH THE SUSTAINABLE SPATIAL PLANNING OF GREEN SPACES

Donatella Valente · Irene Petrosillo

University of Salento

Urbanization is a complex process of land use transformation which has led to the identification of the local (urban) level as the right scale to achieve the 11th UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) “Sustainable cities and communities”, where urban green areas provide crucial urban landscape services improving the quality of life and the well-being. This contribution depends not only on their presence and amount, but also on their type, naturalness degree, size, shape, and their spatial pattern. In this context, the aims of this research are: (1) a systematic review to identify the main research items related to green areas, (2) the estimation of Urban Green Index at the urban and sub-urban scale, (3) the analysis of the spatial composition and configuration of urban green spaces, and (4) the estimation of Urban Landscape Services Index.

The ISI Web and Scopus have been used for the systematic review, then analyzed through a network analysis among the keywords acquired from the articles. The spatial analysis of green areas has been analyzed in the Municipality of Lecce where the Urban Green Index (UGI), the Green Connectivity Index (GCI) and the Landscape Service Index (LSI) has been estimated using landscape metrics and mapped in QGIS.

The green areas have characterized mainly the areas outside Lecce old town, which are more interested by recent urban sprawl. Some sub-urban areas have shown a percentage of UGI, representing the amount of urban green areas, and GCI, representing their spatial configuration, that overpassed the values for the whole study area. These results have contributed to the estimation of LSI, by identifying the sub-urban areas that more provide them.

The positive role of greenery in the enhancement of human well-being in urban contexts is already widely recognized, however this research makes it evident that the ability of urban green areas to provide landscape services is correlated strongly to their structural and functional connectivity. The spatial configuration of green areas plays an important role, as it helps to understand if a single large green area is better than several small interconnected green areas. The so-called SLOSS debate, well-known in nature conservation theory, may be relevant also in the case of green area planning.

Sustainable planning and management of green spaces can play a crucial role in improving the well-being of citizens. Urban green spaces can provide landscape services that contribute to the quality of urban environment and then, to the quality of life, making the cities more resilient.

WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF CULTURAL GREENWAY PROJECT IN HIGH-DENSITY URBAN MUNICIPALITIES? ASSESSING THE PUBLIC LIVING DESIRE NEAR THE CULTURAL GREENWAY IN CENTRAL BEIJING

Haiyun Xu

Beijing University of Civil Engineering & Architecture

Cultural greenway projects (hereon, CGPs) are widely regarded as an urban planning approach that connects open green spaces and sites of socio-cultural value to provide access to living, working, and recreational spaces and enhance local social well-being (Xu et al., 2019). This paper examines the impact of such CGPs on public living desire before and after a given project is completed through analyzing housing prices in the surrounding area. We deployed a hedonic pricing model (HPM) and differences in differences (DID) model to analyze and record any changes in housing market trends that may have been caused by such a cultural greenway project. Via analysis of single-family home sale transactions in central Beijing from 2013 to 2017, we found substantial evidence that proximity to a cultural greenway project is positively linked with rising property prices. Once complete, CGPs were similarly associated with positive increases per HPM and DID modeling.

Our results revealed that, once a CGP was open to the public, it increased the price of properties within one kilometer by 13.3%. Seller and buyer expectations per the development of local, green public infrastructure also began to factor into housing prices prior to the greenway opening to the public. Post completion, the positive trend in property pricing due to local CGPs indicates that the public still has an increasing desire to live near the greenway project. These results will help policymakers better understand how cultural greenways affect neighborhoods in high-density urban contexts and will support the development of urban greenway policies for cities in China that reap the maximum economic benefit (Xu et al., 2022).

# TARGETING PLANNERS. A TOOLBOX FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES WITHIN THE PLANNING OF GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE

While aspects of urban ecology (e.g., description of ecosystem elements, landscape structure, ecosystem functioning, and landscape functions) are addressed in European regulatory urban planning, such conceptual frameworks neither cover the full range of ecosystem services (ES) nor are they able to evaluate the possible change of ES provision under alternative planning variants. Stakeholders would clearly benefit from a transparent and empirically based ES assessment instead of subjective and contested estimations of impacts and benefits perceived by various actors. Prior to urban development planning, actors from civil society, planning and politics should be adequately informed about the full spectrum of ES that are present in the area. The planning of quarters and neighbourhoods can greatly benefit from sophisticated and differentiated ES evaluation methods targeting biophysical variables.

This contribution presents the state of development of a toolbox that makes selected ES assessment methods available for urban planners. The second objective is to demonstrate the benefit of applying ES assessments in decision-making in a real planning context.

In our current α-version, we have implemented five regulating services into the toolbox: PM10-meditation, carbon sequestration, temperature regulation, water flow regulation, and visual screening. We provide the IMECOGIP-toolbox in an open-source and cross-platform GIS-application (QGIS). First, the user provides the necessary data, which the assessment methods ask for. These consist of spatially explicit data as well as model parameters. Whereas only a few soil parameters are necessary, the options to choose among biotope types or land use/land cover classes are manifold. Then, the user has to match the land use/land cover classes that exist in his area to the default classes, in order that the toolbox assigns appropriate parameters to the spatial units, such as leaf area indices, and crop coefficients for evapotranspiration. He may alternatively put up his own specified parameter tables. The user can delineate the area of interest and select the ecosystem services to be assessed. Having run the models, the output consists of maps and summarizing statistics. For orientation, the distance from a hypothetical, optimal ES provision is additionally supplied.

We illustrate the toolbox using a case study, an urban development area in Bochum, for which three planning consortia prepared alternative urban design plans. Applying the toolbox, we compare both the existing ES provision and the anticipated ES provision. Additionally, we evaluate the effects of some planning variants on the expected ES performance. Our toolbox shows that an ES-informed planning gives benefits in comparison to standard concerns of nature and landscape conservation. Under a governance perspective, it facilitates communication among stakeholders.

# 9. Regions in the spotlight

## Landscape Approaches in the Mediterranean region –
bridging landscape science and practice

### Symposium organisers

José Muñoz-Rojas (University of Évora), Emilie Smith-Dumont (University of Évora / Bangor University), Teresa Pinto-Correia (University of Évora)

### Summary

Landscape approaches aim to reconcile agriculture, nature and competing land-uses. Its relevance has been recognized for tropical regions, but not as much in the Mediterranean, which is also a hotspot for biodiversity facing key climate change, ecological and socio-demographic challenges. This symposium will act as a forum for addressing the following questions: (1) what principles of a Landscape Approach are relevant to the key challenges in the Mediterranean? (2) what lessons can be drawn from experiences of Landscape Approaches in the region? and (3) what prospects for advancing strategically?

### Description

Integrative Landscape Approaches have risen over the past few decades, aiming at the integration of the ecological, cultural and productive components of land management and planning. Their main objectives focus on the reconcilement of agricultural production, nature conservation and competing land-uses. Ultimately, they are expected to contribute to help meet global, regional and local sustainability goals. To achieve this, multiple Landscape Approaches are being tested aimed at setting landscape restoration targets, strategies for climate change adaptation and mitigation, and for biodiversity conservation. Furthermore, they are also being advocated as more effective procedures for the coordination and cooperation of different actors and institutions that are frequently bounded by competing interests over land-use decisions.

As a framework to help operationalize Landscape Approaches more consistently, ten principles have been identified. So far, these principles have been applied and tested over a number of case studies, a vast majority of which are located in Tropical areas and developing countries. This is largely due to the work of international development agencies that have joined efforts under the Global Landscapes Forum (https://www.globallandscapesforum.org). The main reason for such focus on tropical areas is the urgent need to tackle wicked processes of deforestation and related complex social-ecological effects. Despite the few critiques identified, Landscape Approaches are resulting in valuable lessons that suggest they ought to be of use across many different contexts. This could well be the case of the Mediterranean region, which is a hotspot for biodiversity, climate change and socio-demographics. Indeed, it is also a region where the key aims defined for Landscape Approaches tightly align with the challenges currently being faced.

In response, this symposium will invite contributions responding to the following questions:

1. What are the key aspects of a Landscape Approaches that may render them adequate for tackling key challenges in the Mediterranean?

2. What are the valuable experiences of applying Landscape Approaches in the region?

3. What are the potential pathways forward, and also the barriers, for advancing towards the implementation of Landscape Approaches in the Mediterranean region, bridging together research and practice?
# ANALYSING NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS ADDRESSING SOCIAL-ECOLOGICAL AND CLIMATIC DRIVERS IN MEDITERRANEAN LANDSCAPES

Land conversion to settlements was the dominant land-use change in the Mediterranean region between 2000 and 2015, and today 60% of the region's population lives in cities while the Mediterranean urban population is projected to increase by another 22.5 million by 2030. At the same time, annual mean temperatures have increased faster than the global average and several climate-related impacts on Mediterranean social-ecological systems have been identified. Nature-based solutions (NBS), are defined as "actions to protect, sustainably use, manage and restore natural or modified ecosystems, which address societal challenges, effectively and adaptively, providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits" (IUCN, 2020). The increasing scientific recognition of NBS accompanies a growing understanding by practitioners and public awareness of the co-benefits provided by NBS in Mediterranean landscapes but various bottlenecks, associated with existing knowledge needs of practitioners about the definition, scope, costs and benefits and the practical implementation of NBS, hamper uptake in planning and practice.

Following a call for submission of NBS case-studies and the establishment of the Horizon 2020 project ReNature NBS Compendium and Toolkit which hosts 95 case-studies from a Mediterranean climate, we present here an analysis of the submitted NBS case-studies to evaluate the current implementation of NBS. For each case study, data about the key characteristics of the NBS, including the location, city size, the timeframe of implementation, budget and interventions carried out were obtained. Additionally, different categories were applied to determine the addressed Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and societal challenges, and the benefits associated with the NBS intervention and allow statistical analysis to answer the research questions.

Results indicate that NBS were used to address multiple societal challenges, including tackling drought and heat risk, low place aesthetic value, low green infrastructure availability, and biodiversity and knowledge loss, simultaneously but implementation gave rise to a wider range of benefits. These observations are discussed in the context of existing barriers and opportunities for a strategy that enhances NBS uptake within the region through integrated, iterative, and multidisciplinary approaches.

# REVERSING THE DECLINE OF MOUNTAIN LANDSCAPES: CAN THE LANDSCAPE APPROACH AND VALUE CHAIN APPROACH BE SUCCESSFULLY COMBINED?

Serra da Estrela is a mountain of the South: the highest and most important mountain range in Portugal. As many other mountain landscapes in Europe, it is a landscape of a particular character and diversity, support of multiple ecosystem services and public goods that society valorises – but threatened. In the face of the upcoming transitions (green, digital, trade, work organization), European mountains are specifically exposed and face limitation in adapting/switching to other productions. The impacts of climate change are particularly severe for mountain regions and their ecosystems. Also, demographic decay and marginalization can be a generalised challenge. Therefore, mountain regions have specific attention in EU policy, as expressed in Art. 174 EU treaty on territorial cohesion, in the CAP (ANCs), quality policy (quality term) and regional policy regulations. Research and innovation are needed to: (1) revisit and upgrade policy and governance approaches, (2) empower mountain actors to innovate for change and goal achievement.

The landscape in Serra da Estrela is changing dramatically due to a combination of factors, mainly abandonment of altitude pastures, leading to a decay of the scattered settlements, increase in shrub area and density, increase in fire risks, and a consequent degradation of the forest patches. In the H2020 MOVING project (2020-2024), the analysis of the landscape value chains has revealed the potential of the specific Serra da Estrela cheese, a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) product, as an asset to the valorisation of the territory. However, activating the cheese value chain alone does not lead to the maintenance of the core landscape of Serra da Estrela. Especially not in altitude where sensitivity to change is highest, as the origin of the milk is accepted from a much larger area of lowland pastures around the mountain. More, forests in the mountain are managed not by farmers or private landowners, but by associations in charge of the forest areas which are commons – bringing possibilities but also limitations to the integrated management of the landscape. The challenge here is how to halt landscape encroachment and start an integrative and adaptive process to secure the preservation of at least a core landscape area.

We will present the landscape changing trends registered in Serra da Estrela, as well as the complex web of actors that are involved in managing natural resources, as thus also the landscape. These were revealed through an extended value chain approach. We will present the functioning of the value chain, and what we can learn about landscape management, from assessing the value chain beyond its economic value. We will discuss the possibilities untied by the Landscape Approach and the challenge to conceptualize and operationalize the combination of the landscape and the value chain approach.

# REIMAGINING THE MEDITERRANEAN COASTAL REGION: A COASTAL LANDSCAPE GOVERNANCE MANIFESTO

Carla Gonçalves · Paulo Pinho

Research Centre for Territory, Transports and Environment (CITTA)

In the literature, landscape approaches are discussed as the next generation of integrated approaches. Reed et al. (2020) claim that the two main premises that differentiate them are working at the landscape scale and the trade-offs identification, negotiation and accounting. Various international institutions (e.g. FAO, IUCN, WWF) have been encouraging landscape approaches implementation on the ground to conciliate preservation and development, especially in developing countries (Arts et al., 2017). Indeed, the debate has mainly been centred in the Global South on forest landscape restoration, revealing the need to expand the discussion to other geographical contexts (Ros-Tonen et al., 2018). This symposium is an opportunity to broaden this debate to the Mediterranean Region. However, addressing the close relationship between landscape approaches and the landscape governance debate is also fundamental. The systematic conceptualisation of landscape governance was introduced in the literature in 2007 (Görg, 2007). The synergies between the concepts were rapidly recognised, and, today, landscape approaches are the predominant approach to operationalise landscape governance.

This article takes this relation as a starting point to conceptually explore the synergies between both debates, expanding and linking the discussion with the coastal planning debate. Mediterranean coastal landscapes are highly susceptible and vulnerable to a range of driving forces and pressures with a complex governance structure. Climate change projections intensify it. It is time to reimagine Mediterranean coastal landscape governance and the institutions that govern them to effectively and efficiently address the societal challenges ahead. Indeed, the scientific literature on coastal landscape governance is almost non-existent. This article explores the concept of coastal landscape governance, and it presents a manifesto to stimulate a commitment for its research on a theoretical and empirical domain to safeguard and enhance the coastal socio-ecological system.

LESSONS LEARNT FROM AN EXPERT-BASED VALIDATION OF LAND SYSTEM DYNAMICS (2005-2015) IN THE MEDITERRANEAN BASIN

Several studies have focused on the assessment of land system (LS) dynamics in the Mediterranean as a proxy of landscape dynamics and as main driver of changes in ecosystem services provided by these systems. Few studies have focused on the whole Mediterranean basin through data-driven analysis of LS dynamics. Within the DIVERCROP Arimnet2 project, an analysis of short-term LS changes has been conducted in the Mediterranean basin (Fusco et al., 2019). The analysis highlighted 20 LS classes in 2005 and 2015 along with three relevant trends: (1) intensification, due to the shift from mixed systems, e.g. agroforestry to intensive arable systems and the increasing new agricultural areas at the border of arid regions, (2) specialization, due to the shift from mixed agriculture to specialized fruit groves, and (3) periurbanization, affecting cereal crops-oriented plains (36%) and mixed arable/fruit groves (6%) or arboriculture-oriented (10%) hilly plateau areas. Feedbacks from the project partners in case study regions allowed to adjust the thresholds of the variables used and to identify areas where the classification or the dynamics were not reliable. In a further step, an expert-based validation was performed. In 2020, 21 scholars having published on Mediterranean landscape dynamics answered to an online survey that also included access to project data and maps. The survey was organised around five themes: variables for distinguishing LS, thresholds for classifying LS, LS classes, LS trajectories and underlying drivers. Results of the survey highlighted a general agreement in the variables for distinguishing LS, in the identified LS and the main trajectories. On the contrary, we had a large heterogeneity of answers concerning both the thresholds for classifying LS and the underlying drivers. We found no significant differences between experts from both sides of the Mediterranean basin or according to the country of origin, suggesting that the knowledge in terms of local landscapes or drivers of change could influence the perception on the thresholds of each LS variable and on the drivers of changes. According to the experts' answers, the LS classification has been changed and this modification had an impact in particular on the assessment of the intensification processes on the most of the areas at the border with the arid zones, which was overestimated during the first assessment, as well as some specialization trajectories on the eastern and southern part of the Mediterranean. We will conclude with some lessons from this research in terms of multi-scale assessment, expert implication along with learning and adaptive management.

IMPLEMENTING INNOVATION FOR ENHANCED SUSTAINABILITY AND RESILIENCE IN MEDITERRANEAN AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS VIA A LANDSCAPE APPROACH; THE WINES OF ALENTEJO SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM (PSVA), PORTUGAL

Landscape approaches (LAs) aim to foster sustainable land management that reconciles agriculture, nature conservation and competing land-use. Such approaches are useful to meet global and local sustainability goals. To achieve this, LAs have been implemented for landscape restoration, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and biodiversity conservation purposes. They have also been advocated as strategic tools for the coordination and cooperation of different actors and institutions bounded by competing interests over land-use. As a framework to operationalize Landscape Approaches, ten principles have been identified in literature. So far, these principles are being tested over an increasing number of case studies. However, few of these studies are found across the Mediterranean area. Starting in 2015, the Wines of Alentejo Sustainability Program (PSVA) has acted as an innovative overarching framework bridging together wine producers and other key actors across the region. This program has managed to enhance the sustainability standards and performances of the sector, while overcoming challenges related to short-term public funding.

In this paper we examine to what extent the PSVA can be considered as a LA. Looking at alignment between the PSVA and the 10 LA principles, and extracting the key lessons learnt over the initial five years of the PSVA, we discuss more broadly the conditions, benefits, limitations and opportunities to extend these principles more broadly across other regions of the Mediterranean where the wine sector may be considered as strategic. An in-depth analysis was conducted of the institutional, organizational, structural, financial and strategic conditions set by the PSVA. Finally, the results obtained throughout these exercises were paired with the 10 LA principles to disentangle any mutual overlaps.

Results point out to three key factors that distinguish the PSVA from other similar programs and projects (see table), and that explain its success in Agri-Food Sustainability. These three factors have been pared to the 10 LA principles as follows:

<table><thead><tr><td>PSVA Findings</td><td>Shared Values</td><td>Dynamic Leadership</td><td>Multi-Actor Networks</td></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Number of Landscape Approach Principles</td><td>6</td><td>4</td><td>6</td></tr></tbody></table>

Results obtained so far indicate a clear overlap, and although preliminary, we can conclude the following: (1) clear examples of (implicit) LAs to enhance the sustainability and resilience of agri-food systems are already being implemented across the Mediterranean macro-region, and (2) the success of the PSVA indicates to the potential of LAs to help other wine producing regions and networks across the Mediterranean move in a similar direction.

RESULTS-BASED PAYMENTS: A NEW TOOL TO INCREASE THE INTEGRATION OF
DIFFERENT LANDSCAPE COMPONENTS IN FARM MANAGEMENT

¹University of Évora · ²University of Algarve

The EU Common Agriculture Policy has an increasing focus on the greening of the policy objectives, and performance based payments in the agri-environmental schemes is one of the selected policy tools. It foresees tailor made solutions focused on results (i.e. environmental outcomes), not processes, benefiting farmers who go beyond the minimum required, in terms of environmental performance. Farmers need to step out of their comfort zone and adapt their management along the way so that the results to be valued, are obtained. The focus on payment by results implies an increased effort by farmers that, with proper technical guidance, take management decisions that will lead, in their specific case, to the results defined. This calls for farm, or even field, based indicators which are easily applicable, for environmental results which depend on farm practices, and make it possible to assess and monitor changes in outcomes along time. And it implies, as the triggering factor, engagement of public authorities to make the results-based payments a possibility within the agri-environmental schemes in place – not just to create such measures but also to create the required advisory conditions for them to flourish.

For the preservation of the Montado silvo-pastoral landscape, with more than 1 million ha in Southern Portugal, and 3 million ha of the similar Dehesa in Spain, these new tools may be a way to boost a renewed integration of all components of a complex system. Despite the multiple public goods supported by the Montado and its role as a High Nature Value farming system, its extension has been regularly under decay since 1990, mostly due to loss of vitality of the system, with decreasing carrying capacity and weakening of tree renewal. Assessments reveal non-adapted grazing and soil management, openings in the tree density and decline in pastures diversity.

Since 2017 the authors have developed a process of joint construction with farmers and technical staff of public administration, of a set of results-based payment scheme for the Montado. The process has not been labelled as Landscape Approach, but follow the same principles. In this paper we present (1) how an active network involving farmers, technical staff of the administration and collective organizations, and researchers, has been build up, (2) how results to be achieved were consensualised, (3) how the system of field based indicators was developed, and (4) how the process has led to the adoption of a results-based pilot scheme in the Portuguese CAP – to be set in place 2023. We discuss the potential and the limitations of our participatory approach for the long-term sustainability transition of these silvo-pastoral landscapes, with more integrated management approaches by those involved.

# BIOCULTURAL CONSERVATION SYSTEMS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN REGION: THE ROLE OF VALUES, RULES, AND KNOWLEDGE

Tobias Plieninger

University of Göttingen / University of Kassel

The Mediterranean Basin is a global biodiversity hotspot, but formal conservation approaches have not been wholly effective to halt species and ecosystem losses in this world region. There is wide agreement that maintaining traditional and diverse land-use systems is key to conserving biodiversity across the Mediterranean region. Biocultural approaches provide a perspective to understand and manage the interplay of nature and culture in various contexts. To develop biocultural systems as positive alternatives to unsustainable land use systems requires an understanding of the decision-making contexts that enable such approaches. The aim of this synthesis presentation is therefore to compare how four biocultural conservation systems in the Mediterranean are shaped by values, rules, and knowledge.

Our study is based on a synthesis of the literature published on agdal (Morocco), communal forests (Spain), sacred natural sites (Greece), and hima (Lebanon). Our synthesis shows that instrumental, intrinsic, and relational values are all fundamental components of the systems studied. Instrumental values, such as the provision of grass or firewood, are central, and are often result of a careful adaptation to the uncertainty inherent to Mediterranean climatic conditions. Systems like agdal and hima have originally been shaped by informal rules (often with the primary motivation to ensure equitable resource use and frequently involving taboos) and were then formalized to varying degrees. All four systems are strongly driven by local knowledge. We conclude that biocultural systems in the Mediterranean represent ‘people and nature’ approaches that support linkages between nature and human well-being. Fostering biocultural conservation in the Mediterranean requires navigating multiple interlinkages between values, rules, and knowledge in decision-making.

ASSESSING AND UP-SCALING SOIL EROSION IN MEDITERRANEAN OLIVE ORCHARDS
WITH DIFFERENT FARMING SYSTEMS

University of Évora

EU Mediterranean countries produce 70% of the world's olive oil production, constituting one of the main components of its socio-economic and cultural life. The increase in olive oil demand is triggering the intensification and expansion of olive groves, by means of the systematic use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and aggressive weed control and soil management practices, such as herbicide, tilling, ferti-irrigation, increased tree density and mechanical harvesting. This intensification process led to simplified landscape patterns with low-nature-value olive groves, which often results in negative environment impacts in the form of soil erosion, soil fertility loss and habitat degradation, and a profound change in landscape character. In the framework of SUSTAINOLIVE project (www.sustainolive.eu), efforts had been addressed to increase sustainability of these farming systems, and to reduce the impacts in the landscape. The implications of these practices in each one of the soil erosion processes at the different spatial scales are still to be addressed.

The main aim of this research is to assess the effects of seven farming systems, differing tree age (100-15-2 years), olive density (traditional-intensive-superintensive; respectively 50-250-1800 tree ha⁻¹) and weed control in the tree lines (herbicide-superficial tilling-trimming) on the different soil erosion processes governing at each spatial and temporal scales. The specific objectives are: (1) field monitoring of soil erosion using sediment fence plots at point-landscape scales (1-600 m²), (2) assessment of soil and sediments C contents and key factors (cover-, climate-, soil-related factors) affecting each of the erosion processes (rain-splash, interrill, rill) at the different spatial scales.

Preliminary results for seven months show that in spite of the low rainfall amount (140 mm) soil erosion on the landscape scale was the highest in herbicide farms (20 Mg ha⁻¹), followed by new plantations (1.6 Mg ha⁻¹). Superficial tilling farms as well as trimming weed control farms achieved negligible erosion (0-0.04 Mg ha⁻¹). Herbicide and the establishment of new plantations promote soil erosion by rills mainly due to the increase of bare soil. On the other hand, the point scale plots (1 m²) revealed contrasting results, with superficial tilling farms showing greater erosion (5.6-2.2 Mg ha⁻¹), as compared to the herbicide farms, which showed only 0.4 Mg ha⁻¹. The small plot scale shows the negative effect of tilling in the mobilization of the soil via rainsplash and interrill erosion. Assessment of soil erosion is increasing farmer's awareness on the overall landscape simplification process and open the pathways for bridging together research and practice. Future research will monitor during two years and address the implication of soil mobilization in carbon losses by mineralization and possible mitigation techniques to reduce soil erosion and improve the landscape management approaches.

RECONCILING DIFFERENT SOCIAL INTERESTS THROUGH INTEGRATIVE LANDSCAPE APPROACH: EXAMPLE OF THE RIVER NERETVA VALLEY, CROATIA

The basic motivation for the present research was the lack of landscape planning approaches within the spatial planning process in Croatia. In practical terms, it entails several dissimilar deficiencies which were addressed in this research. The most important is integral inclusion of the public opinion into the planning process. Within landscape planning, public participation is taken into account through dealing with the conflicts between diverse social groups which may arise. Since spatial planning has a key role in the harmonization of the needs and management of the resources it often faces the conflict between requirement for the development and need for the protection, especially if it comes to conflicting demands of different social groups. However, due to inadequate tools and methods that would point to optimal and sustainable solutions that take into consideration all the criteria simultaneously, decisions are made ‘ad hoc’. So, the landscape approach defined by Sayer et al. (2013) can harmonize protection and development through interventions in the different components of the landscape.

In areas like River Neretva Valley, that was chosen as the research area, often lacked an integrated approach to landscape planning (Roe, 2000), which usually resulted in conflicts between users and thus the lack of inclusion of all interest groups in planning and decision making. The sectors of nature protection, agriculture and hunting were chosen as target social groups of the empirical research, because they were identified as most affected (Čaldarović, 2006). So, the main objectives of the research were (1) to determine the need of harmonizing the various interests in the planning of sustainable spatial development and (2) to identify criteria for landscape evaluation within different social groups in the area of Neretva Delta. Theoretical and practical parts were conducted simultaneously which has enabled comparison and data updating and has resulted with more accurate and objective results. Transformation of the public opinion, whether it is expert or lay public, into the evaluation models which can be cartographically represented and implemented into the spatial planning procedure is very important step forward the sustainable development.

# LINKING CORK TO CORK OAK LANDSCAPES: MAPPING THE VALUE CHAIN OF CORK PRODUCTION IN PORTUGAL

Traditional farming landscapes in South and Central Portugal, known as montados, are affected by global socio-economic and biophysical pressures, putting the sustainability of the systems in jeopardy. Cork oak trees (Quercus suber L.) are characteristic features of these complex agro-silvo-pastoral agroforestry systems, delivering a globally important product, cork. The increasingly distant, global scale of decision making and trade can consequently be observed on the local, landscape, scale.

In this study, we use a value chain approach to test the concept that landscape products can ensure sustainable management of the landscape of origin. We interviewed agents – cork producers, intermediaries, industrial transformers, and winemakers – about the challenges they perceived in the business and how these were connected to the landscape of origin. We illustrate the network of agents and sub-actors involved in the sector and highlight the most prominent concerns. By combining methods from value chain analysis and theories from landscape science, we conclude that this landscape approach can reveal the major points for determining the future of the montado. Furthermore, we suggest that collaboration amongst value chain agents can be a pathway to landscape sustainability.

IMPACT OF DIFFERENT FARM MANAGEMENTS ON THE SUSTAINABILITY OF OLIVE
GROVE LANDSCAPES IN ALENTEJO (PORTUGAL) USING A SIMULATION MODEL

Olive groves form socio-ecological landscapes in the Mediterranean, reaching 350,000 ha in Portugal. Specifically, 57.14% of these crops are in Alentejo region, forming heterogeneous landscapes (Allen et al., 2018). In Alentejo, there are several olive management systems, with the traditional model standing out, as well as multifunctional models such as integrated and organic farms (Egea, y Pérez, 2016). On the other hand, by increasing plant density, there are intensive or highly-intensively crops (Fraga et al., 2020). The contribution of ecosystem services (ES) of these crops, together with the variability of managements, demand the need to design simulation models to assess the impacts of each management, constituting tools to assess olive grove sustainability. Using Alentejo as a study area, a dynamic model was implemented based on experimental and bibliographic data, in which the influence of erosion on productivity was evaluated in the long term. Comparative analyses were carried out between existing management models in terms of the productive-economic and environmental dimensions of the crops, taking farm abandonment as indicator of agricultural impact.

Although the results showed a higher short-term production of intensives groves, cumulative production over the simulated time was lower than in other managements, due to a higher impact of erosion, which encouraged a higher rural abandonment and economic losses. However, in intensive farming, the effects of erosion could be minimised by correct soil management with plant covers, increasing its sustainability. Integrated and organic managements showed a more sustainable production over time, highlighting the low impacts of organic agriculture, where a minimum abandonment was estimated together with high economic benefits derived from the valorisation of the products obtained under this model. Taking into account the novel nature of olive growing in Portugal, the model implemented is a very useful tool that allows the evaluation of the sustainability of the olive grove in Alentejo, enabling management recommendations to be made to professionals with the aim of optimising olive farms and, at the same time, promoting their multifunctionality.

# A REMOTE SENSING-BASED LANDSCAPE APPROACH TO OPTIMISE MULTITAXA ROADKILL MITIGATION PLANS OVER LONG TERM

For landscape approaches, innovative concepts and tools are increasingly required in areas where agriculture and other land uses may be in conflict with environmental and biodiversity protection. In comparison with other land uses, linear infrastructure is identified as landscape element that can be particularly problematic to biodiversity, mainly due to the significant mortality they often cause to wildlife populations. Although roads are expanding in many natural, semi-natural and biodiverse areas, there is a need to focus for conservation approaches on the Mediterranean context, being considered a biodiversity hotspot that is facing relevant changes. Secondly, although a growing body of research is looking at landscape approaches to mitigate wildlife mortality, there have been few attempts to comprehensively integrate such approaches into multi-species road mitigation plans.

In this research, we identify high-risk road sites for 19 forest vertebrate species from three taxonomic groups (non-flying mammals, birds and bats), with the ultimate intention of prioritising and optimising road mortality mitigation plans. To reveal road risk sites, in the Alentejo region (southern Portugal), we make use of a long-term monitoring study (15-year dataset) composed of species occurrence data, road fatality records, and high-resolution satellite imagery. We differ from traditional landscape approaches by identifying remotely sensed habitat metrics for each taxonomic group, then weighting their effects together with functional connectivity models and road metrics to estimate the vulnerability of road kills for each species. By these means, the variation in road kill probability is further estimated within and between each group to check the consistency of the prediction, which ensures flexibility in mitigation planning. We could prioritise road planning units with high accuracy in predicting multiple species mortality, and acceptable variation in probability within each group. However, some discrepancies in consistency of prediction emerged following group comparisons, in particular concerning bats.

Overall, this study demonstrates that spatial convergence in mortality patterns for multiple species is achievable by modelling habitat suitability and identifying dispersal pathways. Such tools, developed using remote sensing information, allowed us to highlight persistent corridors, which is of special relevance in dynamic landscapes. The corridors identified are capable of covering species with different ecological characteristics and movement capacity, and when intersecting roads, may greatly improve the identification of where allocate resources for conservation. The applicability of this study will facilitate the definition of road sites that are more prone to multispecies collision with vehicles, endowing road agencies and practitioners to strategically define long-term, flexible and cost-efficient multitaxa mitigation plans.

# Latin American and European cities: partnership approaches to co-producing nature-based solutions

## Symposium organisers

Tom Wild (University of Sheffield), Sandra Naumann (Ecologic Institute), Juan David Amaya-Espinel (Pontifical Javeriana University), Diana Marcela Ruiz Rios (The Alexander von Humboldt Biological Resources Research Institute)

## Summary

This symposium, organised by Horizon 2020 projects CONEXUS and INTERLACE, provides a trans-disciplinary space for exchange of perspectives on nature-based solutions from cities in Latin American contexts and/or relevant collaborations between Latin American and European researchers. Emerging findings, experiences of partnership development and fully elaborated research results are all welcomed. In particular, inputs are sought about research, innovation and practical actions seeking to bridge different sectors of society (public, private, 3rd and voluntary/ community) in joint efforts to respond using NBS to global challenges such as biodiversity loss, climate change and inclusion.

## Description

Rapid, messy and poorly planned transformation of natural habitats into urbanised areas in Latin America and Europe represents a serious challenge for environmental sustainability. Currently, urbanisation in both regions is a major anthropogenic driver of environmental change, and loss of native biodiversity as well of severe ecosystem services degradation. As a consequence, around 60% of the population settled in cities in these world regions are facing adverse situations related to a worsening in the living conditions in terms of its air quality, food, and water security or the spaces for recreation availability.

The conceptualisation, design, and implementation of actions to mitigate the negative impacts of urbanisation under the framework of nature-based solutions (NBS) indicates how cities can progressively reverse some deleterious effects on human well-being via the restoration and effective functioning of urban and peri-urban ecosystems and the services they provide. However, there persists a lack of knowledge about differing perspectives of NBS, the economic and social benefits they can generate in different contexts, and how to ensure their long-term impacts.

The purpose of this symposium is to facilitate a space to recognise advances, as well as opportunities in the use of NBS to address several challenges in Latin American and European cities associated with improving public health, urban liveability, climate change resilience, social inclusion, and environmental justice. It is expected that this symposium will catalyse NBS partnerships between European and Latin American cities, and beyond, in order to promote access to the shared and contextualised knowledge needed to help drive the required step-change in urban policy and practice to co-create NBS and restore ecosystems. The symposium is organised by the Horizon 2020 projects CONEXUS and INTERLACE.

In this symposium, we envisage that authors will present detailed cases examining societal and global impacts of NBS programmes and projects in Latin American and European cities. These initiatives may be at different scales (macro, meso, and micro) or may cross-cut multiple levels. We therefore call for proposed symposium papers to provide detailed contextual analyses around NBS interventions, the surrounding governance and institutional frameworks, and the realised or intended benefits and trade-offs of NBS interventions (including discussions of what we mean by success or otherwise). Our aspiration is that this discussion forum will provide a sounding board for further development and refinement of case studies and lessons learned, to support their wider communication via new and existing platforms (such as www.oppla.eu). Contact has been made with the Open Access Journal Nature Based Solutions with a view to pursue a special issue on this theme. Efforts are made to encourage and support the participation of Early Career Researchers.
THE CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS KNOWLEDGE PLATFORM FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (CWETLANDSDATA)

Tomasz Bergier

AGH University of Science and Technology

80% of all wastewater worldwide is released untreated into the environment, leading to deteriorating water quality. Achieving universal access to sanitation while improving water quality by halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and increasing its safe reuse are targets 6.2 and 6.3 of the Sustainable Development Goals. Constructed Wetlands (CW), a nature-based solution (NBS), can contribute to these targets. Currently, there is little knowledge about the contribution of CWs to the global amount of treated wastewater. The global Constructed Wetlands Knowledge Platform (CWKP), including a database and a web-based geographic information system (WebGIS), is one-stop shop solution provider for CW-related data and mechanisms for fostering research, policy development and financing. The goal of this platform is also to assess the volume of wastewater treated by CWs worldwide. It shall support researchers, representatives of international organizations, consulting engineers, implementers, funding bodies, further experts and civil society in CW-related research, policy-making, financing, implementation and operation.

During the IALE Symposium CWKP platform will be presented, as well as the state of its development, and especially the content of its database. The potential users of the platform will be encouraged to use, both by using its content, but especially by uploading information they possess to the platform. The approach of co-creation of CWKP content will be also presented, as well as other innovative methods of data acquisition and involvement of the users. Thus the serious game will be presented, which aim is to show the players the dynamics of decision making on application of CWs and other NBS as the solution for wastewater management, as well as to provide them with the real experience of social dilemmas and barriers. The additional resources will be also briefly presented and discussed, especially the case studies and other publications available as the supporting materials on the platform.

All of these above-mentioned activities are the part of the project "Towards the 'Constructed Wetlands Knowledge Platform' for sustainable development" (CWetlandsData), financed under the ERANet-LAC mechanism, and realized by the European-CELAC partnership (Leibniz University Hannover, Germany; AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków, Poland; Cultura Ambiental, Uruguay; Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina, Peru, University of San Carlos, Guatemala).

A multitude of research and innovation projects funded and directed by the European Commission has supported a swift uptake of the nature-based solutions (NBS) approach in the research community. These projects also aim to support mainstreaming of NBS into local practice of urban development. The knowledge and perspectives on NBS gained within these projects is often transferred through guidance material such as handbooks, guides, manuals and toolboxes in either print or digital form (e.g. websites). Compared with the European context, in Latin America, there are interventions from communities that could be categorized as NBS, but they are not defined as such, and the lessons learned are only to a limited extent recorded. In addition, funding opportunities for NBS projects in Latin America are fewer and more diverse. Our aim is to use these differences in guidance material from NBS programs in Europe and Latin America to identify opportunities for co-learning.

We conducted a content analysis on NBS supporting guidance from Latin American and European context. Guidance was collected through expert knowledge, snowballing and a Google search with keywords. As the analysis only includes materials targeted at non-academic users, scientific databases were not consulted. For the analysis, we included results English, Portuguese, and Spanish materials, which focused on (peri-)urban contexts and NBS or related concepts. Moreover, the results should be prescriptive. This resulted in 132 research projects, individual publications and websites (69 English, 6 Portuguese, 57 Spanish), which were analysed in a qualitative and quantitative manner for four topics: (1) their content related to whether and to which degree they covered substantive and procedural aspects of NBS, (2) the inclusiveness of NBS creation, (3) the knowledge transfer based on quality of presentation and target group specific information, and (4) credibility and legitimacy based on the inclusiveness and quality of the guidance development process. For each context, highly assessed guidance were selected for an qualitative in-depth analysis related to the four topics (22 English, 6 Portuguese and 20 Spanish).

The results obtained identify that the guides have a high level of similarities beyond the region. For instance, for both regions the main target users are municipalities, which is in line with the fact that the scale level is in both cases the city and municipal level by far. However, we also observe that English language guides to a greater extent address built environment professionals as a user group, while Spanish guides focus proportionally more on citizenship and community. All guidance are oriented on the process phase of planning and design, while the phases of problem identification and management are being the least considered. By reflecting on these results and others related to the four topics, we discuss potentials for meaningful exchange and learning across continents.

Nature-based solutions (NBS) are nature-supported interventions to address societal challenges. To avoid NBS reproducing social exclusions and inequalities, it is essential to incorporate differences in views and beliefs and valuations of green space and nature in designing, planning, and executing NBS.

Creating inclusive cities is among key aims of INTERLACE, a research project supported by the EU's Horizon 2020 programme. The project triggers and supports a variety of socio-environmental actions in partner municipalities in Europe and Latin America, ranging from urban river restoration, increasing access to safe green spaces for recreation to promoting local agriculture through activities aligned with the eco-social transition. INTERLACE adopts a highly participatory approach, which aims to also specifically target vulnerable and marginalized groups. To this end, we developed a Guidance on cultural, gender and ethics-related considerations to ensure an inclusive approach to facilitate an inclusive, transparent and fair stakeholder participation in the diverse local contexts. In addition, the project seeks to exploit a variety of engagement forms tailored to the targeted stakeholders. These may include, arts, gaming, citizen science workshops and working groups as well as hands-on experience. The implementation of carefully planned, inclusive approaches to citizen engagement generates social benefits as well as ownership, acceptance and uptake of the promoted NBS interventions.

Experiences from three INTERLACE municipal partners in Europe and Latin America showcase the motivation to implement inclusive and tailored stakeholder and citizen engagement approaches, challenges faced as well as benefits and lessons learned in this process. The three case studies include Corredor Biológico Interurbano María Aguilar (CBIMA), an association of five municipalities located in the vicinity of San Jose, Costa Rica; Metropolia Krakowska, an association of 15 municipalities in the metropolitan region of Kraków, Poland; as well as Granollers, a municipality in Catalonia, Spain.

The approaches and activities developed in the three case study areas include:

* implementing a stakeholder engagement process to incorporate views and preferences of various local groups in the process of planning local NBS interventions to strengthen existing green infrastructure and river restoration actions (Granollers, Spain);

* developing a methodology to raise awareness about the role NBS can play in addressing local challenges such as climate change and its impacts on local water cycle by building a small-scale NBS during a hands-on workshop with urban dwellers (Metropolia Krakowska, Poland)

* a complex programme combining citizen engagement, environmental education, capacity building and combating social exclusion which includes community reforestation projects, citizen science, community arts and urban agriculture among other activities (CBIMA, Costa Rica).

EDUCATION – INVOLVEMENT – ACTION: THE SYSTEM APPROACH TO INITIATE THE LOCAL ACTIVITIES FOR CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION

Ewelina Pękała · Tomasz Bergier

The Sendzimir Foundation

One of the major challenges in initiating local actions for climate protection is to engage all stakeholders, overcome the silosity and sectoral approach, and finally to create resilient and sustainable partnerships. The Sendzimir Foundation has been successfully applying and developing a systemic approach in this area, successfully combining goal-oriented education, networking partners from various sectors and social groups, and finally building the strong partnerships initiating practical projects, especially those employing nature-based solutions (NBS) for climate protection.

The present experiences of The Sendzimir Foundation in the above-mentioned area will be presented. This presentation will be also illustrated with the current case study – the model center for education on mitigation and adaptation to climate change, which we are currently creating in Wawer (one of the districts of Warsaw, Poland), in cooperation with the municipality and international partners. Within the project a comprehensive and diverse NBS system will be created at the premises of the primary school (totally 45 NBS, including rain gardens, flower meadows, green walls and pocket parks). We anticipate the active participation of the school community in the planning and constructing the facilities. This investment will be the basis for conducting educational and information activities on the role of NBS in adapting urban areas to climate change, preventing flash floods, heat islands, etc. A number of lesson scenarios and informal activities will be developed, thanks to which the center, apart from the vivid example of NBS, will be the important place for educating teachers, local activists, even officials and professionals, not only from Warsaw or Poland. The project will also provide the comprehensive trainings for target groups, and also the unconventional activities aimed at students and representatives of the local community.

We will briefly present this project, its technical, social, educational and promotional aspects, but the main focus will be placed on its genesis, especially on the approach described in the first paragraph of this abstract and in the title, because we started with educational activities, i.e. the trainings on NBS carried out in Wawer as part of the project "Climate NBS Polska" (implemented with the Ecological Institute, financed by EUKI). A participatory approach and involving the trained NBS designers on the one hand, and the recipients of their work, i.e. the commune of Wawer on the other, resulted in a high-quality vision and design, which was then developed and refined in collaboration in this partnership (broadened in the meantime), and turned into the comprehensive vision, described in the previous paragraph, which was funded by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway Funds, under the Environment, Energy and Climate Change Program. We would like also to address the perspectives and plans for applying and developing such the system approach within Interlace project (in the Krakow Metropolis and other partner cities) and beyond it.

# SANTIAGO+ GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN: BUILDING BRIDGES IN A LATIN-AMERICAN FRAGMENTED CITY

Universidad de Chile

Latin American cities are currently facing several challenges that put at risk the quality of life and the well-being of their inhabitants. Santiago (Chile) is subjected to issues related to air quality, social segregation, equity, loss of biodiversity, and climate change, which are exacerbated by the strong social, environmental, and administrative-institutional fragmentation. This fragmentation derives from the conurbation of 36 autonomous municipalities administered by local governments with their own mayor, council, and budgets without the leadership of a city mayor. In addition, public institutions, policies and regulations have narrow sectoral targets, normally developed within an insulated institutional environment, thus causing serious coordination problems.

This has led Santiago to an urban expansion that has been poorly regulated and has accentuated strong social-environmental patterns of segregation, characterized by a decrease of physical distances between different socioeconomic areas, which consequently produces a reduction of the spatial scale of urban segregation. All this is coupled with the environmental conditions in the city, leading to inequities in the distribution of green areas, heat-islands, and basic services.

The development and implementation of a green infrastructure plan in Santiago offers an opportunity to catalyse the collective interest in different types and scales of green infrastructure which can aid the city in facing its current challenges. The plan is also an opportunity to identify and engage different public, private, and citizen stakeholders to incorporate their initiatives with a strategic vision of integrated planning. Since 2017, we have begun the process aimed to develop the Santiago+ Green Infrastructure Plan, leading to the participation of 20 public institutions, 16 civil society organizations, 6 academic institutions and 3 private organizations.

Through a participatory approach, including multiple stakeholders workshops and collective mappings sessions, we were able to identify key problems that support the development of the plan, goals related to those problems, and key spatial components that enable problem solutions. Barriers for the implementation of the plan were also identified, detecting that the principle of multifunctionality for green infrastructure projects and plans requires an intense intersectoral dialogue and coordinated interventions. Another challenge was the funding of green infrastructure, especially relevant given the deficit of resources for construction and even more relevant for the maintenance of the green and blue spaces in Santiago. This becomes particularly true for low-income municipalities and for initiatives carried out by community organizations.

The development of a green infrastructure system in Santiago can considerably contribute to mitigating the socio-ecological segregation and environmental problems, a commonality of cities from the Latin America region.

DO NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS STUDIES INCLUDE ECONOMIC ANALYSES AND
MONETARY VALUATIONS?

Findings are presented from an investigation of nature-based solutions (NBS) research and case studies. We examine how projects address ‘co-benefits’, and particularly, their coverage of economic impacts. A key issue for the evolution of NBS is how their impacts are evaluated (Dumitru, Wendling, 2021). Central to our study is whether NBS projects involve monetary valuation and if they addressed wide-ranging multiple benefits, or relatively few. This is now a central focus for NBS implementation (Whiteoak, 2020).

To provide a framework for understanding types of assessments, we reviewed abstracts of over 400 published cases drawn together through the H2020 Conexus project (Amaya-Espinel et al., 2021). To complement this, data collated through an EC-funded review (Wild et al., 2020) was re-examined. The ‘Conexus review’ revealed 66 peer-reviewed journal articles reporting economic assessment results, using 13 different economic valuation methods. The ‘EC review’ revealed 29 documents reporting economic assessments. The most striking finding is the wide variety of NBS benefits reported overall. The Conexus review identified >50 different types of co-benefits. Most of these studies did not report economic analyses; relatively few provided details of monetary valuation methods. Most papers focussed on not many co-benefits (c.f. Raymond et al., 2017). Why does this matter? Dumitru and Wendling (2021) offers “a comprehensive NBS impact assessment framework… indicators and methodologies to assess impacts of NBS across 12 societal challenges”. Notably, 2 of those 12 criteria have an economic theme (‘place regeneration’: 47 indicators; ‘economic opportunities & green jobs’: 34 indicators).

Our reviews indicate that few published studies applied or reported economic assessment of NBS impacts. Vasquez and Dobbs (2021) identify the lack of economic valuation of NBS benefits as a key barrier in their development and implementation. The present study indicates that the published literature may not provide a particularly rich source of applied NBS economic valuation methods addressing multiple co-benefit indicators.

# PLANNING AND COOPERATION PROCESSES FOR URBAN RIVER RESTORATION WITH NBS IN PORTOVIEJO, ECUADOR

Grace Yepez · Nicolas Salmon · Sheika Aragundi

YES Innovation

Latin America cities are in direct contact with natural areas of great value with extraordinary ecological diversity. The management of these areas has been modified over time in function of the urban and not the natural. Local knowledge about these natural spaces has been lost, ignoring their functions as well as the role of their components in the ecosystem and their benefits for the cities with which they border or cohabit. These areas are also facing rampant urbanisation that is transforming their unique ecosystems and landscapes almost irreversibly.

The loss or degradation of these natural areas confronts Latin American cities with the challenge of understanding what to do with these areas in poor condition, what role they play in the future of cities in the context of climate change, and how to value the ecosystem services that these areas can generate. On the other hand, most cities in Latin America are facing aggravated effects of climate change that amplify risks and increase the vulnerability of their population.

It is in this context that the INTERLACE project proposes to strengthen the restoration of urban ecosystems in the European Union and Latin America. Ecuador participates with the city of Portoviejo, located in the coastal region and crossed by the Portoviejo River, which gives its name to the city. In this case, the local consortium has focused on establishing collaborative and complementary work with agile processes for a participatory and inclusive diagnosis from the economic, social and environmental sectors of the city. A total of 61 studies were identified on urban, social and environmental issues related to the river. 20 associations and NGOs that have been or are working on programmes and projects on the river were counted. Environmental education projects have been identified in schools and colleges in the city that show the importance of the river in the culture of the population. However, all this work is not related to each other and is not included in official documents or programmes. There is no link between these studies and other related initiatives and the possibility of a local co-production of ideas for the river and its restoration is lost. INTERLACE-Portoviejo is working to generate participation in the diagnosis, tools and proposals for the river from a collective process for the sustainability of the project beyond INTERLACE. The aim is for this process to allow us to respond in advance to what these international collaboration projects can concretely serve and how to transfer locally what has been found and developed in this project. By relying on collective intelligence, we seek to identify key elements to be considered in the developments foreseen in INTERLACE for the participating cities with the objective of supporting the ecological restoration of Portoviejo's river.
# 10. Education in landscape ecology

Teaching and learning landscape ecology and planning in times of growing uncertainties. Challenges ahead during and after the COVID-19 pandemic

**Symposium organisers**

Veerle Van Eetvelde (Ghent University), Werner Rolf (Technical University of Munich), Camila Gomes Sant Anna (Federal University of Goiás)

**Summary**

This symposium aims to address experiences and reflections about teaching landscape ecology during the COVID-19 pandemics. Based in these experiences we want to look forward and discuss how these can help us to further develop teaching contents and methods in future. The symposium is welcoming contributions from colleagues in the different levels of education and degrees. What are the challenges and opportunities ahead? What are the appropriate ways of working together in a blended teaching format? Can the online version replace the real landscape? How to create new blended spaces and places for learning landscape ecology? What multiscale approaches in landscape ecology can be used in landscape planning and design projects in the current era?

We are looking for contributions with practical examples but also with critical and theoretical reflections about teaching landscape ecology and planning during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

**Description**

To be a teacher or a student in a changing society and environment is challenging. This means that the content, learning outcomes and competences of the programs and curricula need to be updated to the new demands from society. Graduate students have to be prepared to tackle future research questions in landscape ecology to formulate solutions for a more sustainable and liveable world for all species. Also the educational system is challenged and encouraged to use new technologies and research methods. Innovating teaching and evaluation methods are encouraged. This leads to a continuous updating of courses to ensure the overall qualities of the different levels in teaching, from the primary schools to the graduate level. Teaching programmes and courses might need to handle these challenges, also taking into account how students can be prepared for a future that is characterised by growing societal and environmental uncertainties.

However, no one could have predicted the situation the whole world was getting into due to the COVID-19 pandemics since March 2020. Schools and university were closed, teaching had to be organised in a different manner, and contacts between students and teachers could only take place virtually. These other ways of interaction with and among students appeared to be both different and difficult. The different and wide variety of our traditional teaching and evaluation methods had to be adapted. Both teachers and students had to be flexible, creative and adaptive.

When teaching about and in the landscape, specific teaching methods are used such as going in the landscape (excursions and fieldwork), the use of imagination (representations and visualisation) and observations (recording and analytical skills), learning together and working interdisciplinary, and the iterative learning process and integration between indirect desktop and direct field observation. Now we were challenged to bring the landscape and its different perspectives into a virtual world.

The aim of this symposia is to discuss how we can progress in teaching and learning landscape ecology in the post-corona period. What are appropriate ways to respond to drastic changes in the future? What insights can be learned and could be integrated into the teaching programs of the

<figure><img src="image_308.png" /></figure>
future? Are we still using the appropriate concepts and teaching methods? Is blended learning the future of academic education? How can we get students interested in landscape ecology in a hybrid approach combining learning in school/on campus with distance learning (including online learning)? What are the appropriate ways of working together in a blended teaching format? Can the online version replace the real landscape? How to create new blended spaces and places for learning landscape ecology?

A specific focus will go to systemic and strategic methodologies of Landscape Ecology Teaching and learning in planning and design study programmes, including methodological strategies and tools in the field and virtually as well as the interdisciplinary approach that gathers architects, urbanist, biologists and geographers.

The symposium will be built on different experiences from the participants in the different levels of education and degrees and discuss both practical examples as well as theoretical reflections.
HOW CAN THE UNIVERSITIES' CAMPUSES SUPPORT AN INTERDISCIPLINARY LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY EDUCATION? LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BEIRUT

Beata Dreksler · Monika Fabian

American University of Beirut

Studies and research of landscape ecology are interdisciplinary by its nature. Academic institutes play an important role in enhancing the science and the practice of landscape ecology by integrating institutional and academic goals.

The American University of Beirut (AUB) campus, located at the heart of the urban Ras Beirut area, incorporates a unique natural environment. Since its establishment in 1866, AUB has been celebrated for its academic programs and its campus. The campus was also designated as a Botanical garden in 2016 by BGCI to protect its natural environment and its diverse flora and fauna. Currently, the AUB campus (61 acres) is one of the very few green areas left in Beirut. It is located by the sea and surrounded by dense urbanization. The campus was always used as an outdoor classroom for many courses throughout the faculties. It became a hub for architects, landscape architects, urbanists, biologists, geographers – just to mention some of them. New interactions between different groups of AUB users with different backgrounds created a unique opportunity to collaborate and exchange ideas and experiences.

The research questions were: Can the campus – given its limited area – become a ground to promote and enhance an interdisciplinary approach to teaching the courses with the landscape ecology elements? How can it be relevant to teach and learn about both natural and urban ecosystems? How can the students and faculty members from different specialties work together on landscape ecology topics? What is the best way to encourage interdisciplinary teaching and student research in landscape ecology on campus? How can the campus become a hub to promote landscape ecology as a science topic in Lebanon?

AUB Campus is used by University students, faculty, staff as well as visitors. Current educational activities were analyzed to investigate the possibility of the creation of multiple users' networks dedicated to landscape ecology. Inquiries were sent to all faculties of the American University of Beirut, except those that are located outside of the campus. Collected data was analyzed and compared with courses included in the AUB Catalog. Additionally, academic faculty were asked to identify possible further activities under the landscape ecology umbrella.

During the research 1486 courses offered by different entities of AUB were analyzed. Two different types of interaction were identified: direct – related directly to topics related to landscape ecology and indirect – related to other activities that eventually can include or promote landscape ecology topics. The remaining courses have been analyzed for the possibility of incorporating landscape ecology elements into their curricula and matched in terms of possible, further synergies. As an outcome, new opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration in landscape ecology were identified. These included: joint courses, combined training programs, and mutual research.

# POTENTIALS OF THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM APPROACH FOR LANDSCAPE EDUCATION
## – EXPERIENCES BEYOND COVID-19

Isabel Loupa-Ramos¹ · Werner Rolf²

¹University of Lisbon · ²Technical University of Munich

When considering educational aspects, the COVID-19 pandemic has created significant challenges that cannot be ignored. Worldwide educational communities were asked to transition to remote teaching. In general, this took place by moving the traditional teaching mode and existing contents to an online environment. Assessment of experiences are needed also to identifying opportunities on how newly gained digital competences of the educational community can be used as a gateway to new teaching formats and enhancing educational quality by blending digital toolboxes with face-to-face interaction in a more purposeful way.

In this wider context, in this presentation we aim at introducing to the concept and the educational model of Flipped Classroom, and at sharing two experiments conducted in courses of green infrastructure planning in higher education, both at the Universities of Munich and Lisbon, remotely and face-to-face. Three aspects are explored: (1) the communication of knowledge and how concepts and theoretical frameworks are provided to the students, (2) the interaction with student focusing on the apprehension of the knowledge by applying it to a specific landscape, and (3) how to approach and understand the landscape notably focusing on arising challenges in remote teaching setting.

Ultimately, we aim at conducting structured interactive discussion with the congress participants about the strength and weaknesses of this teaching concept and explore its potential of applicability in other contexts. This, beyond COVID-19 restrictions and by taking advantage of the steep learning curve and newly acquired skills of the educational community.

“IMAGINE THE LANDSCAPE” — CHALLENGES OF ONLINE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF LANDSCAPE

Iwona Markuszewska

Adam Mickiewicz University

This paper presents experiences and reflections about teaching and learning on landscape-oriented courses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The paper discusses how the different teaching and learning methods which were used can help online and/or blended techniques for landscape-related teaching in the future. In addition, this article reflects on students' perception of unconventional techniques of teaching about landscape. This paper also discusses the usefulness of teaching methods that were adopted due to the virtual manner of teaching and learning processes, and the pros and cons of learning about landscape in a virtual world.

The study involved bachelor's and master's students of Environmental Management at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, and participants on ‘Development and Planning of Rural Areas’, ‘Cross-border Environmental Management’ and ‘Landscape Ecology’ academic courses. These three courses were held at different times during the pandemic; in the spring semester 2019/2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown, and in the continuing pandemic period: during the summer holidays/break and in the academic year 2020/2021. Both qualitative and quantitative research methods were used to collect the data. Structured and semi-structured questionnaires were carried out, the aim of which was to establish, inter alia, Whether online teaching can replace the real landscape, How students perceive online learning of landscape, and What values students gained from online landscape teaching.

The results show that online education was a key factor in changing students' perception of landscape, e.g., pandemic isolation has revealed a greater social role in shaping landscape. On the other hand, the survey findings inspired modifications to teaching approaches. Some recommendations about virtual, hybrid, and face-to-face methods of teaching and learning about landscape were suggested.

¹Le:Notre Institute · ²Warsaw University of Life Sciences · ³Lab of the Commons

Sustainable food planning is a thriving transdisciplinary research and policy field bringing together policymakers, academics, community workers, NGOs, and practitioners across the globe. There is evidence of serious gaps in knowledge and transformative competences to address the challenges in a multi-disciplinary way and the recognition of the essential role of graduates of (spatial) planning course in developing integrated territorial plans in a democratic way, and understanding an inter-sectoral, multi-level, and multi-stakeholder approach. Therefore, the Erasmus plus Action for Education, Spatial Organisation and Planning for Sustainable Food (AESOP4Food) aims to answer the need for sustainable food planning by creating a joint interdisciplinary European learning activity. Core target groups are university staff and students from architecture, urban planning, landscape architecture, agronomy, environmental sciences, as well as sustainability studies. Secondary audiences are NGOs and communities involved in local food systems, municipalities and the wider public, in order to break down barriers and foster collaboration, while encouraging knowledge development at all levels: personal, professional, communal and political.

AESOP4Food engages in a dialogue between the different actors working on the issue of sustainable food systems and aims to link expert and local knowledge which not only helps to make better decisions but also ensures plans and policies which are both grounded in state-of-the-art knowledge and local communities' perceptions.

The paper examined the Food Loop living lab in Warsaw (case study) as a result of cooperation between the Warsaw University of Life Sciences (SGGW) and the NGO Lab of the Commons, since 2021. The aim of the living lab is to develop a Circular Economy Food System project for the SGGW campus, involving various actors. It consists of multiple educational, research, design and implementation activities on urban food production, community building and composting at two venues – Hoe and the Sun Community Garden and the SGGW campus. This collaboration enables knowledge sharing between academics and practitioners. The ongoing living lab consists of three stages: (1) open workshops on sustainable urban agriculture and circular economy in the Hoe and the Sun Community Garden, (2) open research and design workshops at SGGW campus, and (3) results dissemination – open conference and at both venues. It is a pilot project and concerns community garden and selected units on the campus (canteens and dormitories). The developed research and design model can then be used for other units on the campus and in the future for other campuses, community gardens and institutions in Warsaw.

The paper presents the outline of the online seminar in connection with the Food Loop Warsaw living lab and the principles for carrying out a rigorous process of participatory action research.

University of Warsaw

The urban water bodies, such as lakes and ponds, substantially contribute to the urban green and blue infrastructure. Especially small ones, due to their size and various human impacts, are vulnerable and exposed to several threats. We aimed to characterise the selected Warsaw's small lakes and ponds, and to understand the environmental, as well as anthropogenic factors influencing their diversity. To address this problem we examined 29 such objects. With help of fieldwork, laboratory work, literature review and cartographic sources, we collected data on their origin, environmental conditions, water quality, land management, and functions they provide. The resulting database serves for further analyses on the factors influencing the diversity of lakes and ponds. The study is a good example of a successful science education in landscape and urban ecology, where an academic course evolves into research carried jointly by the students and the academic teachers.
