Can metropolitan landscapes become resilient?

The quality of life in the SuperWien Metropole is not only defined by its urban centres, business districts and working areas, but also, to a large part, by its different types of landscapes – delta areas and large-scale parks are complemented by urban agriculture and vineyards. Considering the increasing consumption of land and the challenges related to the climate crisis, it is a shared responsibility to preserve green and blue infrastructure to create a resilient metropolitan area. These landscapes are not only of high recreational and leisure value for the local population, but also attractive for visitors and tourists. There is also a high demand to rethink urban food systems and ensure a sustainable and affordable energy supply. Together with international experts on environmental, energy and landscape planning, we will discuss spatial strategies towards an integrated and climate-friendly metropolis.
