Note: The seminar forms a module together with the lecture 'Landscape Planning'. It is compulsory to take the entire module. The module is primarily intended for students of the M.Sc. programme Sustainable Resource Management, though students from other programmes are also welcome. As one component of the module is designed as an interactive seminar, the number of participants may need to be limited. Should this become necessary, priority will be given to SRM students who have selected Landscape Management as their Science Topic.

Description
Concerned with the stewardship and enhancement of environmental systems, Landscape Planning is the key planning instrument for nature conservation and landscape management in Germany. The module introduces Landscape Planning and reflects on its potential contribution to sustainable land use with a focus on non-urban areas.
The seminar gives students the opportunity to deepen their knowledge by reflecting on readings and planning documents; engage in Learning by Teaching activities with the focus on contemporary and emerging scientific theories and methodological approaches relevant for environmental analysis and planning as well as stakeholder involvement; consider the context-dependency of spatial planning; and compare current jurisdictional and institutional arrangements on landscape-related planning in the home countries of the students and their implications.
