Freije, Arjan (author)The fifteen-minute city (FMC) concept aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve urban liveability and free up space by promoting a modal shift from car to active modes. According to theory, the proximity of all basic needs should have a maximum travel time of 15 minutes by bike or foot to achieve the FMC goals. However, basic needs are...master thesis 2022

Ding, Xiaoling (author)Flooding is one of the most destructive climate disasters. Since the 21st century, the United States, Thailand, China, and many other countries have been hit by flash floods, which not only exposed the vulnerability of the urban system expansively but also serves as an opportunity to promote resilient city construction. The research begins by...master thesis 2022

Mulder, Milou (author), Stecher, Emilie (author), Tarozzo Kawasaki, Maria (author), te Velde, Roos (author), Wu, Jiaying (author)The Netherlands, and in particular South–Holland, is to a large extent below sea level, making the region vulnerable to environmental challenges linked to climate change. According to IPCC, a sea-level rise of two to five metres is not excluded, while the Delta committee advised the government recently to not invest in new infrastructure in the...student report 2022

Šiško, Josip (author), Tomić, Hrvoje (author), Gašparović, Sanja (author), Šiško, Darko (author)Spatial planning is at the core of every economic and social development of city. Key element in the process of spatial planning is information, that is traditionally a cadastre and land book. The change in property values has been considered as the result of the planning process, but in the last decade researches have seen a huge importance of...conference paper 2022

Nefs, Merten (author), Zonneveld, W.A.M. (author), Gerretsen, Paul (author)Like other countries with large ports, the Netherlands developed a policy narrative to acquire a key position in global value chains starting in the 1980s, through the spatial development of its hinterland logistics complex. The negative environmental effects of logistics, such as landscape transformation and congestion, have increasingly come...journal article 2022

Faludi, A.K.F. (author)This paper is about my path from studying Dutch to European planning. Looking at the latter made me identify a ‘territorialism’ that subdivides land into supposedly self-contained units as a basic organising principle. Where the EU is concerned, territorialism is problematic: relations, spatial or otherwise, between EU members states take the...book chapter 2022

Meng, M. (author), Dabrowski, M.M. (author), Stead, D. (author)The need to respond to increasing flood risk, climate change, and rapid urban development has shaped innovative policies and practices of spatial planning in many countries over recent decades. As an instrumental–technical intervention, planning is mainly used to improve the physical environment (through concepts such as regulating waterproof...book chapter 2022

Stead, D. (author)This chapter outlines a conceptual model for understanding the range of policy tools which can be used in spatial planning. The classification of tools builds on the NATO model (nodality, authority, treasue, and organisation) proposed by Christopher Hood (1986) and differentiates between two separate functions of policy tools: substantive and...book chapter 2022

Hauser, S.J. (author), Zhu, P. (author)Since the development of the oil industry in the 1860s, petroleum products became increasingly important in economies and shaped the urban form. The impact of oil exploration, exploitation, and transformation led to the creation of districts and cities entirely dedicated to the oil industry. This dynamic relationship between economic activity...journal article 2022

Goncalves, J. E. (author), Verma, T. (author), Arab, R. (author)In urban areas, climate change effects are often associated with increasing risks of flood, heat waves, and sagging. Increasing climate risks exacerbate existing urban inequalities, poverty levels, and environmental degradation. Global urban policy is reacting to these urban issues by calling for making cities more inclusive, safe, resilient,...conference paper 2022
