Resilientes Melbourne: Nachhaltigkeit und naturbasierte Strategien der Stadtentwicklung in Australien

Australian cities are receiving attention for their sustainability and resilience initiatives - innovative approaches for coping with the challenges of dynamic population growth, loss of biodiversity, and shocks such as extreme weather events. This paper discusses these recent trends in Australian urban development by focusing on Melbourne's resilience initiative, which highlights the need for 'nature-based solutions'. This new element of urban planning requires experimental forms of cooperation between stakeholders from the public and private sectors, academia and civil society.
