Planning for green qualities in the urban densification

Examine why green growth is important and how it can be defined in an urban context.

Description

Provision of urban green space in compact city environments and during densification processes is described as a major challenge. It identifies problems, challenges and strategies of urban green space planning during densification processes. The project explores the implications of urban densification, on a place-based study . ( greater Copenhagen, frederiksberg district- local aspects, observation, improved organisation of public transport, looking intro critical aspects ) .The project will show the pros and cons of urban densification and the impacts on the urban environment, focussing on the local urban environment by examining the economic and environmental conditions and assessing the critical role of cities in advancing green growth.

Examining why green growth is important and how it can be defined in an urban context,

Focuses on policies and tools that enable the transition to green growth in cities.

The project concludes a proposal for a policy framework for an urban green growth agenda that is based on a set of hypotheses of desirable economic scenarios. The case study will be used to conclude whether compact city policies and densification can lead to a sustainable urban environment. National planning strategies to local planning strategies.
