The discussion whether and how to capture the increment of land value has been present in academia and politics for decades. Only few countries have established comprehensive systems to calculate land values and introduce a regulatory basis to directly or indirectly capture increments linked to land-use planning decisions for the public good. This...
Die Frage der Steuerung von Freizeit- und Zweitwohnsitzen, insbesondere in touristischen Regionen, ist seit vielen Jahren Thema in der Raumplanung, wie auch eine bereits vor 35 Jahren im Auftrag der ÖROK verfasste Arbeit (Schriftenreihe Nr. 54) belegt. Die Nachfrage nach Freizeitimmobilien erfuhr in den vergangenen Jahren jedoch eine Dynamik, die d...
This article presents an open space concept of areas that are kept permanently free from buildings, technical infrastructure, and soil sealing. In the European Alps, space is scarce because of the topography; conflicts often arise between competing land uses such as permanent settlements and commercial activity. However, the presence of open spaces...
An analysis of the integration of climate change adaptation and climate resilience in spatial planning systems and practice in the Alpine region.

EUSALP Action Group 8 – Risk Governance
The presentation reflects on intermediate research results in the Austrian ACRP financed project "Climate Proofing of (Urban) Planning Instruments". It provides an overview on the integration of Climate Change Adaptation measures in planning instruments on different levels of spatial planning.
Die letzten Jahre haben die "Klimakrise" in das gemeinschaftliche Bewusstsein gerückt. In der Bundes-, Landes-und Kommunalpolitik sowie der Verwaltung werden Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz und der Klimawandelanpassung breit diskutiert und entwickelt. Das trifft auch für die Raumplanung zu, die durch ihre Eigenschaft als Querschnittsmaterie einen wesentl...
The major event that hit Europe in summer 2021 reminds society that floods are recurrent and among the costliest and deadliest natural hazards. The long-term flood risk management (FRM) efforts preferring sole technical measures to prevent and mitigate floods have shown to be not sufficiently effective and sensitive to the environment. Nature-Based...
Presentation of the findings and results of the evaluation of the status quo in natural hazard risk governance in the EUSALP macro-region. ECCA, 2019, Lisbon.
CIPRA und Alpenkonvention gaben 2021 den 5. Band in der Schwerpunktreihe zu den einzelnen Protokollen der Alpenkonvention heraus. Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit den Vorgaben des Berglandwirtschaftsprotokolls für die Raumplanung in Österreich und evaluiert ob die Bundesländer den vertraglichen Verpflichtungen in Gesetzgebung und Praxis nachkommen.
Background paper for the Global Report on Internal Displacement - GRID 2021.
Nature-based solutions (NbS) are often framed positively in terms of win–win options or no-regret measures. However, are NbS equally beneficial for everyone? Are burdens and benefits of NbS really equally distributed and projects embraced by everyone? Is the process leading to the implementation of NbS always fair and inclusive? This chapter provid...
The overall goal of the project baubehoerde.at is therefore to evaluate the possibilities and limits of digitising processes in building authorities. Aspects of building control and procedures are, so to speak, digitally thought through and, with the involvement of relevant stakeholders, a vision for the digital building authority including recomme...
Within the wide array of adaptive responses to flood hazards, planned relocation of residents at risk is usually only taken into account if other responses are ineffective or unavailable. Residents targeted by planned re-location are confronted with radical changes in their livelihood; therefore, relocation is highly contested within public risk di...
An overview of the recent challenges and possible enhancements in Austrias public value capture system. PLPR 2020, Usti Nad Labem.
This policy brief is a result of a study commissioned on the status quo of risk governance mechanisms in dealing with certain natural hazards in the EUSALP Region. The EUSALP Action Group 8 took over the task of mapping risk governance throughout the different countries, regions and provinces. The self- assessment and discussions within the group w...
The poster highlights the outcomes of a status quo analysis on risk governance that has been carried out within the Action Group 8 of the EU-Strategy for the Alpine Region.
Flood retention, in particular controlled flood retention, plays an increasingly prominent
role in the portfolio of flood risk management strategies. Though a highly effective measure to reduce the risk of flooding for vulnerable areas, flood retention is land-intensive and infringes on landowners’ property rights. Implementation efforts are thus o...
Presentation on problems arising from multi-owned tourism accommodation as well as counter strategies from planning legislators and policy makers in Austria. AESOP 2019, Venice.
Natural hazards are an essential condition for spatial development. Following the premise to safeguard people as well as property and infrastructure from damages by hazard events, different measures can be undertaken in an integrative natural hazard management. If no structural measures or adaptations of objects are possible, occasionally the decon...
This article aims to analyze the legal framework for flood risk management in Austria, focusing on planning. Austria’s legal basis for flood risk management is fairly complex because its federal organization involves various administrative bodies and a fragmented legal framework. Regulations are numerous, as are competencies, which poses challenges...
Geladener Vortrag (Naturschutzbund Salzburg) im Rahmen der Veranstaltung - Geht uns der Boden aus?, Kleßheim/Salzburg
IWRA Policy Briefs are published by IWRA in association with IWRA partners. They aim to provide high quality analysis and practical recommendations for policy makers on important development issues. IWRA Policy Briefs are for the purpose of stimulating discussion and awareness; IWRA, as a neutral forum, does not necessarily endorse the views expres...
Natural Hazard Risk Governance is a rather new subject of scientific investigation. Managing natural hazards in its understanding of raising the effectiveness and efficiency of the public sector reached its limits. Therefore, there is a need for involving and empowering concerned people and institutions to take care of hazard prevention and handlin...
The two-day regional workshop in Salzburg from Monday, October 15th to Tuesday, October 16th 2018 consisted of workshop sessions and two site visits, where the workshop participants engaged in stakeholder dialogues with local actors and visited flood storage sites to learn more about the implementation of flood compensation mechanisms.
Die Planung und Umsetzung von Absiedelungen im Zusammenhang mit Hochwassergefahren ist eine selten durchgeführte, aber hocheffiziente Maßnahme des passiven Schutzes und der Risikominimierung. In Österreich gibt es seit der Zwischenkriegszeit an der Salzach und insbesondere entlang der Donau bereits seit den 1970er-Jahren Erfahrungen mit der Abwickl...
Absiedlungen von Privathaushalten aus Hochwasserrisikogebieten sind nahezu immer ein kontroverses und umstrittenes Thema. An der Frage, ob und wie abgesiedelt werden soll, scheiden sich Meinungen zu Verantwortung, Gerechtigkeit, Schutzanspruch, Risikowahrnehmung, Solidarität, Ortsverbundenheit und Wohnvorstellungen. Die Situation in Absiedlungsgebi...
Flood risk management in Europe has considerably changed over the past decades. Structural defence systems are no longer prioritised but integral solutions combining different measures are favoured instead (EC, 2007). Relocation of households located in hazard prone zones is one possible measure to substantially reduce hazard risk. Besides the glob...

The role “Austria plays in Europe” was the incentive for producing the report at the time, as it is today as well. For the first version in the year 1998, Austria’s accession to the European Union with the necessity to “present the new member state of Austria and its position within the European constellation of member states” was the triggering mo...
Discussion of different approaches in planning law to regulate and steer second homes in the Austrian Alps. AESOP, 2018.

Präsentation zu qualitativem und quantitativem Bodenschutz in der Raumplanung im Rahmen des Bodenforum 2018, Linz.
The Austrian Alps have been made accessible for mountaineering mainly from the late 19th century to the 1930s. Besides hiking trails a network of alpine huts providing simple shelter were constructed. These buildings are nowadays located in sensitive and protected alpine ecosystems and are addressed by planning and building regulations. The article...
