Objectives
The landscape in which forests and woodlands are embedded is shaped not only by ecological and economic factors, but also by political and social influences. Demands of society, legal and planning provisions, social norms and behavioural practices determine the use of space and natural resources. What the natural environment provides, how it can used sustainable, and how competing land uses can be coordinated are central issues in spatial environmental planning.
After successful participation in the course, students are able to understand the objectives and tasks of landscape planning as well as the spatial planning framework in Germany. They know the basic terms and central theories of spatial environmental planning, can classify them and apply them to specific problems (e.g., impact mitigation, energy transition). The students are familiar with essential methodological and conceptual approaches of landscape planning and can assess their explanatory power and scope of application.

Description
Basic terms, concepts and instruments of landscape planning; legal provisions; natural assets, landscape functions and ecosystem services; methods for analysis and evaluation of nature and landscape.
Prerequisites
Basics of natural sciences (soils, vegetation, wildlife ecology)
Teaching and learning methods
The lecture content is conveyed by presentations. Case study examples and exercises are integrated in the lecture to reinforce knowledge. In class discussions, students have the opportunity to consolidate module content, to exchange views and critically reflect on different perspectives. Students are encouraged to engage with the content of the material presented and to study the scientific literature.
Examination
Written exam
