Sehr geehrte Lesende
Wie genau könnte man global und lokal die Ernährungssysteme nachhaltiger gestalten, so dass auch Überflutungen verhindert und prioritäre Vogelarten gefördert werden? Und: wir stellen Ihnen den neuen NSL Leiter David Kaufmann vor (Raumentwicklung und Stadtpolitik).
Wir wünschen guten Leseappetit!
On the highlands, across crop rotation plains and within the drained valley floors the «Agriterritories» of Zurich require immediate action for design to take back its political role within the rural. The ETH Zürich studio Agroecological Repair – Transformative Practices for the Zürich Territory (spring 23) was part of the Masters in Advanced studies in Urban and Territorial Design Confronting pivotal debates. The student work made radical proposals for future transformations in the global food system.
Antananarivo serves as a prominent example of how urban agriculture can effectively provide essential services for creating sustainable and resilient cities, specifically addressing food security and flood control challenges. The FCL Global research project has made significant contributions through landscape designs that prioritise and advance these crucial services, benefiting from the diverse expertise of its multidisciplinary team.
Die landwirtschaftliche Nutzung beeinflusst die Artenvielfalt, die zu schützen eine Herausforderung darstellt. Eine Studie hat potenzielle Verbreitungsgebiete prioritärer Vogelarten (Artverbreitungsmodelle) mit der landwirtschaftlichen Nutzungsauswirkung (Ökobilanzierung) verbunden. Basierend darauf wurde eine räumlich explizite Karte mit Fokusgebieten für den Erhalt und die Förderung dieser Arten produziert.
The landscapes dominated by chestnut trees in the southern alpine valleys are among the traditional agroforestry systems of Switzerland and have long been the main source of food for the local population. These complex socio-ecological systems provide a great learning space for landscape architects and planners, as chestnut orchards are an excellent example of a productive, yet wonderfully beautiful, landscape between forest, agriculture, and recreation area.
David Kaufmann is the new director of the Network City and Landscape (NSL) for the next two years. His priorities revolve around enhancing ETH Zürich’s standing in the field of national and international urban research and fostering synergies among ETH’s urban research groups in research, teaching, and engagement with society.

Housing is one of the most significant challenges for humanitarian actors and displaced persons in cities. This new SNF project on Urban Humanitarian Housing hopes to contribute to improving humanitarian housing responses as well as the well-being and agency of urban displaced persons worldwide. This is a collaboration with the Beirut Urban Lab and the Instituto Pensar in Bogotá.
Das Large-Scale Virtualization and Modeling Lab (LVML) wird Teil von Design++, dem Zentrum für erweitertes computergestütztes Entwerfen in Architektur und Bauingenieurwesen. Es öffnet seine Nutzung für die Mitglieder von Design++, um die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit zu fördern und unterstützt Wissensintegration, um Planungsprozesse und Entwurfswerkzeuge zu verbessern.

Pilotregionen, Bund und der Lehrstuhl Planung von Landschaft und Urbanen Systemen (PLUS) entwerfen gemeinsam, welche Fragestellungen und Indikatoren bezogen auf das Bauen ausserhalb Bauzonen künftig in den Kantonen im Rahmen eines Monitorings beantwortet bzw. erfasst werden sollten (BAB). Im Fokus stehen Nutzungsarten (Landwirtschaft, Wohnen) sowie Infrastrukturen und Anlagen. Kontakt: Ulrike Wissen Hayek

Book Launch and Doctoral Colloquium, 26. & 27.10 2023 |
Lively Cities departs from conventions of urban studies to argue that cities are lived achievements forged by a multitude of entities – human and nonhuman – that make up the material politics of city making.
Like in many cities and regions worldwide, densification is the current urban development paradigm in Switzerland. Although considered one of the main policy mechanisms for sustainable land use, densification strategies are mainly employed by the private sector, causing adverse social effects.
Calibration of car-following (CF) models is considered a very important task towards reproduction of individual vehicle behaviors and collective traffic phenomena.

This colloquium brings together transport planning researchers and practitioners to reflect on the growth processes of western or industrialized societies by identifying, assessing, and operating their transport infrastructures.
Transport planning as a discipline and practice has supported the growth processes of western or industrialized societies by identifying, assessing, and operating their transport infrastructures. In the last 150 years it was able to solve the capacity problems arising from population and industrial growth by using some of the growing national incomes to build more or better infrastructures for the growing number of vehicles. The challenges and the time frame of the greenhouse gas (GHG) accumulation change the way our societies should respond both in terms of our speed and in terms of the scale of our actions.
This colloquium brings together transport planning researchers and practitioners to reflect on these issues. The range of issues and suggestions can help to formulate strategies strong enough to fulfill the commitments which our societies have entered.
Day 1 brings together former students and researchers of the Institute for Transport Planning and Systems (IVT). Younger academics will present on day 2, while more senior researchers and practitioners will conclude on day 3. They will reflect on their ongoing work and on their experiences. They will draw their conclusions for our policy making and planning. The open discussions during and at the close of the colloquium will help defining our agendas for the future.
