This is the idea and concept basis for the seminar. The implementation may differ slightly.
The seminar will cover key issues of infrastructure planning, management and maintenance in the urban context and strategically link infrastructural issues with sustainability goals. The seminar will both contextualize issues with a comprehensive and strategic meaning and those in specific infrastructural settings, such as for energy provision, water supply, waste (water) management or transport and logistics infrastructure. The two main strategic and cross-oriented baselines will be set from a critical perspective on smart city development and design as well as from a strong sustainability standpoint with reference to the ecosystem approach for infrastructure planning.
