The Fábos Conference on Landscape and Greenway Planning is held every three years to bring together experts who are influencing landscape planning, policy making and greenway planning from the local to international level. It is intended to highlight recent trends and expand the literature about landscape and greenway planning. The aim is to explore how landscape architects and planners from different countries have approached greenway planning and to understand how greenways have been tailored to each county’s unique geographical, cultural, and political circumstances. The conference provides an opportunity to publish full papers in printed proceedings.
The theme for the 2019 conference, “Urban Greenway Planning: Adapting to Expanding and Contracting Cities,” explores the social and ecological potential of linear green spaces in urban areas that are experiencing decline and/or those that are booming. We look to explore the variety of ways in which urban greenways are conceived, designed, built, used, and maintained in cities across the globe in response to economic and demographic trends. We invite abstracts (100-200 words) describing research, a project summary, or a perspective essay. Author’s whose abstracts are accepted will be encouraged to submit a full paper. Submission of a full paper will enable presentation at the conference and publication in a peer-reviewed conference proceedings.
