The lecture “An Introduction to Green/ Blue Gentrification“ will discuss the role(s) of green and blue spaces within the city, with a particular emphasis on how these spaces might be linked to gentrification processes. The lecture will provide a basic understanding in this field. The lecture will be held for the first-year students in the program Sustainability and Future societies.
Lecturer Marcus Hübscher is a Junior Professor for Sustainable Urban Futures at Dresden University of Technology (Germany). His interest lies in the field of housing studies and spatial justice (gentrification, megaprojects), platform economies (short-term rentals etc.), and blue-green infrastructure. Marcus completed his PhD in summer 2023, applying qualitative and quantitative methods to analyse the relationship between large-scale urban development projects and urbanism through the case study of Santa Cruz de Tenerife (Spain).
