COMPACT +PRODUCTIVE

The urban land is performing well econom-ically, but its low density leads to extensive needs for transport and land. It remains a challenge to implement sustainable agen-das in this fragmented urbanized territory of uncoordinated stakeholders. Integrated solutions, which find a balance between density, resources and equity still have to be envisioned.

How can functions be layered on the same piece of land? How can urban and rural be-come intrinsic instead of opposing? How can concepts of ownership, management and financing be refined?

CONNECTED+BALANCED

Infrastructure must inform densification and drive collaborative developments. Dig-itization and a new appetite for slow traffic have caused additional mobility patterns and become serious driving forces. Large-scale “green” infrastructures including energy, mobility, water and waste management can contribute to overcome boundaries.

How can co-operational finance models fa-cilitate this? How can green infrastructure re-shape in the urban land? How can stakehold-ers buy into the idea of shaping integrated infrastructures as a civil project?

COORDINATED +EXPERIMENTAL

Increasingly cities use experimentation as a strategy to find innovative practical solu-tions. An exchange of experience between cosmopolitan and urban land conditions can stimulate new practices and back tran-sition processes. Creative approaches to multi-level policies in larger catchment are-as of urbanized territories are needed.

How can formal planning bodies incentiv-ize incremental approaches and learn from bold experiments? How can universities become stimulating, consulting and coordi-nating institutions?

URBAN LANDCONFERENCE

|nº1

A large segment of Europe’s population lives outside traditional urban cores in small and medium-sized cities, suburban agglomerations, or the fringes of metropoli-tan areas. They cover large areas, are home to millions of people and full of economic development. In the urban land, infrastruc-tures, agriculture and production, business-es and housing merge in a fascinatingly operational, albeit fragmented landscape. To date it falls short of its potentials and does not receive the attention it deserves.

The conference will investigate how to shape the future of urbanized territories across municipal boundaries. It provides a platform for the exchange of policy makers, urban planners, business leaders, academ-ics and community groups. Together we will explore how new finance and govern-ance models can work across municipal boundaries, support joint action and lead to sustainable societies.

urbanes.land sets a focus on urbanized territories of intermediate density. It spe-cializes in evidence-based analysis and strategic consulting of planning bodies and policy makers at a municipal and regional level. The institutes research applies differ-ent tools on different scales – classical ge-ographic methods, cartography and stake-holder analyses are being complemented by open source data editing, net based archives, storytelling and social media ex-periments. The team facilitates, initiates and supports planning processes and un-ravels new arguments. Current projects are in South West Germany, the Benelux and Baltic States.

The conference is taking place in the for-mer HfG Ulm.

Hochschule für GestaltungAm Höchsträß 8 / 1089081 Ulm/Germany

In 1953 Inge Aicher-Scholl, Otl Aicher and Max Bill founded the Ulm School of Design (HfG) taking up the Bauhaus tradition. The school existed until 1968 and was famous for its progressive and explicitly political approach to design. At the time it was in-ternationally influential. Since 1979, the ensemble of buildings is protected as a cultural monument.

TRANSFER EVENTAVAILABLE FOODHOST: ARPAD DOBRIBAN

After the conference we invite representa-tives from politics and administration, busi-ness and civil society to a network event.

Arpad Dobriban - experienced artist, shows that the practice and results of cooking can equal visual arts and unravels the extensive and complex cultural knowledge that is hidden in food and its preparing - sets the frame with a lectured meal under the title “Available Food – Handling what we have got”. He will present a menu, challenging our per-ception of techniques, evolution and inven-tions of handling food and leftovers. In Aprad’s work, physical experiences merge with mental work and emotional in-volvement like in any other work of art. The evening is intended to exchange with the panellists and get involved in inspiring de-bates about the future of the region. The event will start following the confer-ence at approx. 7pm.
