Deadline extended: Survey on peri-urban landscapes

Dear Colleagues,

We are working on the study titled “Policy making and spatial planning for reducing ecosystem services trade-offs in peri-urban landscapes”. 

To facilitate this study, we prepared an on-line survey. Objectives of the study and survey are:

  1. To identify existing shortcomings, concerning to how ecosystem services (ES) trade-offs in peri-urban landscapes (PULs) are addressed by policy instruments and planning documents on the regional level;
  2. To describe good practices (GP) related to governance and planning of ES trade-offs in PULs

The majority of the questions in the survey are closed, however a comprehensive work on this survey might take up to 40 minutes. Before start working on this survey please prepare basic information concerning to:

  • binding policy instrument related to your whole region, which address (or is supposed to) ES trade-offs in PULs;
  • binding planning document related to your whole region, which address (or is supposed to) ES trade-offs in PULs;
  • Good Practice from your region, which is related to policy making and planning of ES trade-offs in PULs.

Please fill the survey till the 9 October 2020.

Thank you very much for your time!
