Title
Planning Green Infrastructure as a Source of Urban and Regional Resilience – Towards Institutional Challenges
Abstract
Green infrastructure programmes and strategies are regarded as planning opportunities to promote sustainable and resilient urban development. However, the discourse about green infrastructure policy and its effectiveness has pointed to the limited success in practical implementation. Since the green infrastructure has no planning status in its own right, it depends on being embedded in comprehensive urban and regional planning approaches if it is to have an impact on sustainable and resilient urban development. At the same time spatial planning may contribute to providing a platform for its institutionalisation.
