    Sammanfattning : This speculative design-led research project addresses the challenges of transforming dilapidated post-industrial brownfield sites into thriving, sustainable, resilient urban neighbourhoods. Tasked with allocating urban growth, municipality planning departments increasingly look towards underused but centrally located industrial sites for future development. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Exploring the conditions for a shift to Continuous Cover Forestry in Sweden : a practice-based approach to understanding what enables and challenges forest management practitioners to practice Continuous Cover Forestry

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Filippa Morner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :environmental communication; social practice theory; practice based approach; Continuous Cover Forestry; forest management practices; Swedish forestry;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the adoption of Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF) in response to mounting environmental concerns stemming from conventional forestry in Sweden. Utilising a social practice-based approach with qualitative interviews and observations of forest managers who engage in CCF “on the ground”, the study uncovers a complex of practices connected to CCF, encompassing policy and regulation, research, advice, services, and forest ownership.
