This graduation project is called “Based in Place: Alternative economies in the region of Chocó. This project tackles the question of how urban development should consider the qualities of the place, especially in fragile regions such as the Chocó in the Colombian Pacific. It also evaluates alternative methods of strategic planning to lead...

This thesis researches two main aspects: the characteristics of (national) spatial strategies and how they can be transferred, to learn lessons for the next Dutch spatial planning strategy of 2018 (NOVI). Taking the objectives that have been formulated by NOVI in content, process and product as a starting point, a comparative study is made...

This graduation stems from my personal interest in gender studies and its deep-rooted connection to the construction of space. Born in a country, where gender inequality is evident in all walks of life, the interest gradually transformed to an urge to study the possible ways this burning issue could be tackled. The intention of the project is to...

The study explores the factors for success of long-term spatial development policies. The theoretic frame assumed that co-ownership of the content of a development policy is not enough for sustained support. Co-creation of a development vision with all relevant parties in a region or city would entail co-authorship, which enhances the chances...

Recognizing that climate risk is a real threat to the environment and society, spatial planning plays a key role in developing adaptation policy responses as well as in integrating the territorial or spatial impacts of governmental sectoral policies. Planning for adaptation through policy intervention will speed up the implementation of climate...

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges we face during this century; heatwaves, periods of extreme drought, and heavy rainfall get more common. Increasing temperatures have massive impact on cities. High amounts of paved- and built-up surfaces store heat during the day, making cities warmer than their rural environment. In order to keep...

This essay is about the “Blue Banana”. Banana is the name given subsequently by others to a Dorsale européenne (European backbone) identified empirically by Roger Brunet. In a background study to the Communication of the European Commission ‘Europe 2000’, Klaus Kunzmann and Michael Wegener put forward the allegedly radical alternative called the...

The purpose of this contribution is to look at different planning contexts into which decisions about subsoil engineering presently need to be integrated. There are many ways of doing as well as theorizing spatial planning; and planning practice is constantly changing. Next to that, soil legislation and management has become more important to...

A planning proposal recognizing the dual identity of open space in Wihdaat, an urbanized Palestinian refugee camp which doubles as a centrality of Amman. The recognition of the dual identity allowes the inclusion of (inter)national and street scale stakeholders through their shared involvement in the activation of public space.

Lu, P. (author)
Spatial planning is increasingly being considered as an important mechanism in coping with flood risk due to climate change. One of the reasons for this is that engineering approaches are increasingly expensive and cannot provide complete certainty of protection against climate-related floods. The thesis examines whether and how spatial planning...

The purpose of this paper is to address the need for cross-disciplinary, collaborative international research that supports implementation of a ‘smart mobility’ for sustainable urban transportation. Progress toward a positive, integrated, and sustainable future for urban transportation will require more than technology. According to Susan...

High-tech development—which lies at the very heart of the processes of economic growth—has been recognised by many developed and developing countries as a strategic instrument to enhance and sustain their competitiveness in the global economic network. Although the concept of high-tech development differs between countries, many share the...

Fernandez Maldonado, A.M. (author)
Until the 1990s, the Peruvian housing policies exhibited a wide tolerance toward occupation of peripheral land by poor residents, while the state solved the housing demand of the poor allocating large extensions of land for new informal settlements. In front of a very weak spatial planning, the housing policy became a de-facto land-use policy,...

This paper draws attention to a case in which Natura 2000 regulation, problematic ecological conditions, governance congestion and the aim to develop large urban projects are to go hand in hand in the soft space of the Markermeer-IJmeer area, a 30 by 25 km lake in the centre of the Netherlands. The key interest is how central regulation is...

In order to incorporate climate adaptation in spatial planning change is required, because climate change impacts the way we live. This implies that spatial planning, as the arranger of the spatial organisation and layout needs to be able to support this change. Current spatial planning is not yet well equipped to play this role. In this...

Hoekstra, R. (author)
The Dutch government aims since the 1990s at a more market oriented approach in urban planning with different implications in terms of who benefits and loses from interventions in vulnerable places such as neighbourhoods of empowerment (krachtwijken). This policy shift and way of thinking about urban planning implicated big changes in the...

Subject of study is Private Sector-led Urban Development Projects. Such projects involve property developers taking a leading role and local authorities adopting a facilitating role in the management of the development of an urban area, based on a framework of public requirements and a formal contractual public-private role division. Such a...

Adaptation to climate change is seen as relatively unpredictable and wicked problem. The design of spatial plans for such a problem requires a spatial planning methodology or approach, which is able to include dynamism and flexibility. The current planning practice does not apply these kinds of approaches. Therefore the Swarm Planning...
