  • Are spatial plans transformative for biodiversity and ecosystem services? Insights from seven European countries

    Open AccessM Susana Orta-Ortiz, M Susana Orta‐Ortiz et al.ARTICLEEuropean Planning Studies2026

    This study explores how spatial plans hold transformative potential for biodiversity and ecosystem services (ES) valorisation. It develops a conceptual framework that unpacks transformative change for biodiversity-inclusive spatial planning, analysing plans' components—visions, strategies, information baseline, actions, instruments and regulations—through four analytical elements: governance, mitigation hierarchy, spatial planning provision of se…

  • ‘United by a Castle, Wine and a Mountain’

    Open AccessFátima Bernardo, Tiago Dionisio et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community & Applied…2026

    Understanding place identity in terms of both its intensity and the contents that underpin it is an important source for understanding intergroup relationships between neighbourhoods in an urban context. To tackle this objective, a municipality in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area in Portugal was selected due to identity heterogeneity between its four parishes. Participants were asked to evaluate their identity with the place, the prestige and the qua…

    The 2030 Agenda underscores the vital role of local authorities and civil society in implementing sustainable development goals (SDGs). Aligning with this agenda, the EU's spatial development framework imparts normative values, emphasizing sustainable territorial development, participatory governance, and multi‐level cooperation. This framework serves as a potential facilitator for spatial planning to ensure policy coherence in SDG implementation…

  • Drivers of European landscape change

    T van der Sluis, Bas Arts et al.ARTICLELandscape Research2019Cited by: 1References: 42

    Understanding complex processes of landscape change is crucial to guide the development of future landscapes and land resources. Through Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping, we studied the processes of landscape change of six different environmental zones in Europe. Results show that landscapes are complex systems, with many interactions. Except for one, all regions show a strong decline in landscape quality. Dominant drivers are EU policy and the global eco…

  • What matters to people? Exploring contents of landscape identity at the local scale

    Isabel Loupa Ramos, Paulo Bianchi et al.ARTICLELandscape Research2019Cited by: 4References: 19

    Planning policies are drivers of landscape change and affect people’s identity related to landscape. An improved understanding of landscape identity can provide insights, with a view to steering policy and planning. The concept of landscape identity is useful to explore the interaction between people and their surroundings, making identification of the ‘content’ of identity a pivotal issue. This paper aims to understand the contents of landscape …

This article uses a planning experiment to explore and discuss some concerns about visual attractiveness of city–river landscapes in promoting spatial integration of cities and rivers. It presents a methodological approach integrating expert opinions and public perception questionna…
