Dr.-Ing. Christian Strauß, Scientific Coordination Project Sustainable Land Managament – innovative system solutions, chairs the special session “Governance of land use: between place and flows” which will be part of the 2017 Annual conference of the International Academic Association on Planning, Law and Property Rights. The conference will be held in Hong Kong from February 19th till 24th 2017. Scientists and practitioners are invited to contribute to the call for papers which runs until October 14th 2016.
The session discusses governance strategies with regard to the different concepts of “governance of space and place” and “governance of flows” in order to respond to new challenges like energy transition, regional value chains and material flow management. It thus should be suitable to cope more adequately with land use conflicts, facing current challenges like economic and social changes of values, migration and demographic impacts. With its transdisciplinary approach, the session discusses results from the BMBF funding programme and is thus structured around the topic of Sustainable Land Management.
