66 | Juni 2025: Human Landscape Interaction / Interaktion Mensch Landschaft
Dear Readers,
How does the interaction between humans and the landscape shape us? How and to what extent should/can we influence it? In the face of climate change, statically designed landscapes require new, dynamic approaches. Innovative projects like TANTAN’EAU help with water and flood management, while food policy intervenes in urban agriculture. Scenario planning supports complex visions of the future, and industrial heritage, such as waste dumps, has a lasting impact on our landscapes.
We hope you enjoy reading this informative newsletter.
