Urban Interventions: property development, spatial planning, and the just city

    Activiteit: Academic presentationAcademic

    Description

    Housing markets, developments, and spatial planning are deeply interconnected and central to building just, sustainable cities. The ongoing focus on housing crises has led governments across the spectrum to set ambitious targets for addressing shortages and affordability. Yet, despite expanded regulations, these goals are rarely achieved. This contribution explores two decades of housing market and planning regulations in the Netherlands, arguing that a fragmented regulatory structure—marked by conflicting and often non-binding policies—complicates housing objectives, resulting in inconsistent interventions and limited progress toward cohesive urban strategies for just cities. Understandings relations towards the just city and sustainability ambitions is a crucial step towards finding potential answers and enabling strategic urban interventions
