What are the benefits of different forms of building and neighborhood greening? How can urban society be actively involved in the development of green and climate resilient neighborhoods? How can climate resilience be concretely integrated into planning and management processes, especially in urban planning and landscape design competitions? What is the role of the various actors in planning and what alternative processes are available? These questions are to be clarified in the course of the final event of the research project "Green city of the future II".

With practical examples, the researchers will show how municipal agencies and independent planning offices can best proceed in order to preserve and improve urban green spaces. Building on transdisciplinary research, primarily in Munich, we provide recommendations for climate-adapted green design - from the individual building to the neighborhood level.
