Green Infrastructure Design from a Social-Ecological Systems Approach

Green Infrastructure Design from a Social-Ecological Systems Approach

Alberdi, Mikel ;

Full paper:

This paper is based on a critical analysis of the state of the art of green infrastructure design from a social-ecological perspective and it develops a conceptual framework focusing on brownfields as highly complex spaces. An understanding of social-ecological relationships is key to emerging new urban landscapes of green infrastructure however, research on green infrastructure planning from a social-ecological systems approach is limited. Green infrastructure can benefit from a landscape approach providing a systems view. The social-ecological systems perspective can reinforce the design of green infrastructure to integrate social and ecological aspects that influence on its behaviour and generate emergent, open-ended landscapes. This perspective offers a better understanding of the interactions in a green infrastructure system. Therefore, social-ecological systems approach to design green infrastructure can be beneficial to the development of emergent new urban landscapes on brownfields. The next step is the mapping of social-ecological system parameters within a green infrastructure that will enable the comparison with existing green infrastructure design.
