The Conference seeks to explore the causes and consequences of current land use trends and dynamics related to society, economy and environment. It will identify the major drivers of land use and address the questions of what will happen if we keep doing what we are doing now, and what alternative measures could strengthen the sustainable use of natural resources in rural and suburban areas.
