Ko-Automobilität. Heutige Nutzungsformen und Nutzungsmuster in Deutschland und Verbreitungspotenziale als alternatives Mobilitätsangebot

Das Projekt "Autoteilen" beschäftigt sich mit den Möglichkeiten der gemeinschaftlichen/geteilten Nutzung des Pkws. Einhergehend mit der fortschreitenden Digitalisierung und Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (KIT) entwickelt sich eine Vielfalt neuer Nutzungsformen im Bereich Peer-2-Peer-Sharing. Im Rahmen des Projekts werden die verschiedenen Formen des Pkw-P2P-Sharings untersucht, die Nutzer sowie ihre Motive und Anforderungen bzw. Nutzungsbarrieren betrachtet und eine Aussage zum künftigen Verbreitungspotenzial getroffen

Lebensmittel vom Dach

Der Wettbewerb um Ressourcen und frucht baren Boden sowie steigende Energiepreise verteuern zunehmend die Nahrungsmittelproduktion. Daher gewinnt die gebäudegebundene Landwirtschaft, kurz „ZFarming“, seit etwa zehn Jahren an Bedeutung. Dieser weltweite Trend setzt der aktuellen Lebensmittelproduktion vielversprechende Ansätze entgegen

Moreover, cities have to become or remain livable for their inhabitants and offer social and economic opportunities. Thus, reconnecting food production and cities offers promising potential. The diffusion of urban farming reflects a rising awareness of how food and farming can shape our cities. A growing number of urban farming projects exist in and on urban buildings, including open rooftop farms, rooftop greenhouses and indoor farming. These projects are characterized by the non-use of land or acreage for farming activities. We use the term ‘Zero-Acreage Farming’ (ZFarming) to represent these farms. The objective of this paper is to: (1) illustrate and systemize present practices of ZFarming and (2) discuss specific novelties of ZFarming in the wider context of urban agriculture. We analyzed 73 ZFarms in cities of North America, Asia, Australia and Europe using a set of criteria, and developed a typology of ZFarming, complemented by in-depth interviews with pioneers in rooftop farming in New York. The results illustrate that ZFarming generates innovative practices that may contribute to a sustainable urban agriculture. Besides growing food, it produces a range of non-food and non-market goods. It involves new opportunities for resource efficiency, new farming technologies, specific implementation processes and networks, new patterns of food supply and new urban spaces

An Aggregated Stakeholder Perspective on Potential Benefits and Challenges

How can buildings be combined with agricultural production and what are the major potential benefits and challenges for the introduction of zero-acreage farming (ZFarming) in Berlin from the relevant stakeholders’ perspectives? These questions were explored through a series of interviews and stakeholder workshops held between 2011 and 2013. The aim was to identify the most suitable building-integrated farming model for the Berlin metropolitan area and to develop guidelines for the model’s successful and sustainable implementation through a stakeholder-driven approach. This paper provides an aggregated synthesis of the outcomes derived from the qualitative interviews and stakeholder workshops. As the results reveal, the stakeholders perceive potential benefits and challenges related to the issue of ZFarming in all dimensions (economic, social, environmental and political). They largely agreed on the importance of focusing on local resources, using energy- efficient production—including social and educational aspects—and developing new market structures when introducing ZFarming to the city of Berlin. The stakeholders identified urban rooftop greenhouses (RTG) as the most promising farming model for Berlin. In a joint collaboration of all stakeholders, a manual for RTG was developed within the participatory innovation process that addresses the identified problems and challenges associated with future implementation and governance of RTG in Berlin and beyond

Space-time design of the public city

Time has become an increasingly important topic in urban studies and urban planning. The spatial-temporal interplay is not only of relevance for the theory of urban development and urban politics, but also for urban planning and governance. The space-time approach focuses on the human being with its various habits and routines in the city. Understanding and taking those habits into account in urban planning and public policies offers a new way to improve the quality of life in our cities. Adapting the supply and accessibility of public spaces and services to the inhabitants’ space-time needs calls for an integrated approach to the physical design of urban space and to the organization of cities. In the last two decades the body of practical and theoretical work on urban space-time topics has grown substantially. The book offers a state of the art overview of the theoretical reasoning, the development of new analytical tools, and practical experience of the space-time design of public cities in major European countries. The contributions were written by academics and practitioners from various fields exploring space-time research and planning

Welcoming perspectives – sustainable urban development through urban design thinking

Inwiefern eignet sich Urban Design Thinking als ko-kreative Methode und Impuls für städtische Transformationsprozesse? Was bringen solche ko-kreativen Stadtentwicklungsprozesse mit bestimmten Bevölkerungsgruppen einer Stadt wie Mannheim und wie fügen sie sich in die Stadtpolitik ein? Wie kann man andere Städte dafür interessieren, was im Mannheimer Reallabor erprobt und erarbeitet wird? Diese neugierigen Fragen waren der Ausgangspunkt zu einem Forschungs- und Entwicklungsprozess, der sich zwischen 2016 und 2019 in der Stadt Mannheim im Rahmen des Forschungsprojekts Migrants4Cities. Hochqualifizierte Migrant*innen gestalten Zukunftsstädte entfaltete. Migrants4Cities hat mit Urban Design Thinking in einem ko-kreativen Arbeitsprozess zu zentralen Stadtentwicklungsthemen in Mannheim real experimentiert und versteht sich daher als Reallabor. Die Antworten, die das Verbundteam aus der Stadt Mannheim, dem Fachgebiet für Bestandsentwicklung und Erneuerung von Siedlungseinheiten der Technischen Universität Berlin und dem inter 3 Institut für Ressourcenmanagement auf die eingangs formulierten Fragen gefunden hat, werden in diesem Sammelband präsentiert. Das Buch zeigt auf, warum Ko-Kreation auch in der Stadtentwicklung zunehmend an Bedeutung gewinnt und wie mit Urban Design Thinking solche ko-kreativen, am Bedarf der Menschen ausgerichtete Arbeitsprozesse im städtischen Kontext strukturiert und umgesetzt werden können. Es bietet anschauliche Einblicke, wie Urban Design Thinking im Projekt Migrants4Cities eingesetzt wurde, welche Personen in die Arbeit eingebunden waren, was den Arbeitsprozess ausgezeichnet hat und welche Ergebnisse erarbeitet wurden. Basierend auf diesen Erfahrungen wird der ko-kreative Ansatz in Mannheim reflektiert in Bezug auf: die Besonderheiten in der Anwendung von Urban Design Thinking, die Einbindung solcher Vorgehensweisen in die Routinen städtischer Governance, die Mobilisierung und Einbindung der Migrant*innen sowie den Transfer von Ergebnissen in andere Städte. Ermöglicht wurde Migrants4Cities durch die Förderung des Bundesministeriums für Bildung und Forschung im Rahmen des Programms Nachhaltige Transformation urbaner Räume.Which needs, ideas and solutions do migrants identify for a sustainable urban development? Is Urban Design Thinking a suitable method to enable co-creation in urban transformation processes? What are the effects and benefits of such co-creative approaches in a city like Mannheim with its very diverse population, and how do they practically fit into urban governance? How can the interest of other cities be aroused for what is happening in an experimental setting like in Mannheim? These curious questions have been the starting point for a research and development process that took place in Mannheim between 2016 and 2019 within the project Migrants4Cities. High-qualified migrants design future cities. The project experimented with Urban Design Thinking in a real-life, co-creative urban laboratory on key challenges of urban development. This book presents answers to the questions mentioned above, that have been developed by the project team consisting of the City of Mannheim, the Chair for Urban Renewal and Sustainable Development at TU Berlin and inter 3 Institute for Resource Management. The book describes why co-creation gains importance in urban development and how Urban Design Thinking offers tools to structure implement such human-centred approaches focussing on the needs of the people also in urban settings. It offers illustrative insights how Urban Design Thinking was applied in the sub-projects of Migrants4Cities, which persons were involved, what characterized the working process and which results were elaborated. Based on these experiences the authors reflect the co-creative approach concerning: the peculiarities of applying Urban Design Thinking; the integration of such methods into the routines of urban governance; the mobilization and integration of migrants; and the transfer of results to other cities. The project was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research within the program of Sustainable Transformation of Urban Areas.BMBF, 01UR1605B, Migrants4Cities – Hochqualifizierte Migrant*innen gestalten Zukunftsstädt
