1 Water sensitive Cities in a Danish context - the next steps Birgitte Hoffmann Foto: Birgite Hoffmann, Peter Munthe-Kaas m.fl.
2 Center for Design, Innovation and Sustainable Transitions [ The complexity and challenges of sustainable development call for new understandings of the socio-technical and economic dynamics involved and for experimenting with alternative courses of action. The need for new competences: Urban Planning and Management, Sustainable Cities Techno-antroplogy, Sustainable Design
3 Climate Adaptation Water in cities? Water in Danish Cities? Green Growth Urban Quality Which urban water futures?

5 Transition governance? Cities matters! (foto: Henrik Montgomery/SCANPIX)
6 And citites are small as well as BIG part of something BIGGER the urban and the rual are closely related
7 Urban visions and trends - Liveabilty - Biophily - Resilience Water in Danish Cities? - Urban water transitons The next steps! - 4 important steps
8 Green urbanism Visions and trends on-going narratives Urban ecology Sustainable cities Biophilic cities Liveable cities Growth engine Creative cities Resilient cities Adaptive cities People climate Transition towns
9 Metropolis for people
10 COPENHAGEN HAS A VISION We want to be the worlds best city to live in A sustainable city with urban spaces, which invites to a multiple and unique urban life We want to be a metropolis for people [Københavns Kommune 2009]
11 Anebjerg a new and sustainable urban neighbourhood
12 the overall goal is an urban quality based development - characterised by health, sustainability, nature experiences, and environmental protection. [Skanderborg Kommune]
13 Not just Urban space
14 also Urban life
15
16 Biophilic city mixing people, animals and plants The role of plants and animals in the city Integrating large and small green and blue infrastructures - More and more diversified nature - Corridors and space for a range of different animals - A healthier environment - Interesting experiences - More friendly people ;-) Foto: Ditte Esbirk og Bastian Junker
17 Recilient cities with adaptive capacity The capacity to handle change and reorganise and taking challenges as potentials for development and gains Foto: Developing more flexible, diversified infrastructures Enabling different knowledge and learning to come into play (e.g. Olsson et al. 2004)

21 Water supply & sewered cities Water systems part of modernity: Effective provision safe and secure Invisible disposal of waste water New technologies & urban networks Regulation and organisations Drivers: - Health and hygiene - Science, Engineers - Progress and growth Foto: KE/Hofor Foto: Arbejderbevægelsens Bibliotek og Arkiv
22 Our drained city Drainage and control of water farming, rivers, coats, urban sprawl New standards and regulation of housing and roads - Post war (1864) + Post war boom (1945): the family dream of house, garden and car - New technologies and push of urban hydrology to take the storm water of the city - Nature views rational vs. romantic Foto: Åben åen - New challenges because of climate changes and urban renewing Foto: Kulturjagt i Køge Bugt

24 Water ways city Challenging the progression of the service delivery that have led to over extraction and pollution Working with the ways of water Denmark - Ecological Modernisation Regulation and new technologies e,g. waste water cleaning, Water becoming included in planning as a recreational value New professional disciplines e.g. environmental engineers Foto: Åben åen Foto: Ringkøbing Skjern Kommune
25 Examples
26 Water Cycle city Response to water resource challenges and environmental problems Focusing on the water cycles and nutrients at different scales Saving, keeping and using different water qualities Denmark: - Wand plans - Water savings and water balances - Urban gardening
27 Examples? Stenløse Syd Lokal afledning og genbrug af regnvand Silkeborg faunapassage
28 Water sensitive city Environmental protection and repair Supply security and flood control Health, recreation values, liveability, economic sustainability Taking water as a resource Being part of the nature Technologies, infrastructure and urban form would be diverse and flexible designed to reinforce sustainable practises and social capital And be adaptive and continunally evolving
29 Examples?
30 Examples?
31 Climate adaption on the agenda among water professionals New networks and courses Status A growing number of projects: Separation of storm water Local handling of storm water Greening and visible water elements Urban scale Ørestad, Skt. Kjelds, Greve, Middelfart Municipal climate adaptation plans with risk maps Plans and visions being developed
32 we are ready to go further Foto: dr.tv
33 The next steps 1. Up scaling 2. Water as a resource 3. Integration 4. Strategic urban development
34 Up scaling From projects to larger scales: Working with grey, green, and blue structures: At urban level Across city and landscape Regional
35 Water as a ressource From water as a problem to be controlled to Working with water Water cycles Seasonal changes Supporting nature Water qualities for health Recreative values
36 Integrative approaches From a discipline for water professionals to Working with more perspectives and disciplines - Water in urban development - integration in other spheres: e.g. urban life, health, social, culture, learning - Inviting these disciplines in to climate change - Collaborating with citizens and users
37 Strategic planning From infrastructure to Strategic urban planning Water in cities Water as a major perspective Integrations in other plans Working with water sensitive, liveable cities
38 Workshop invitation? Hvordan vil vi arbejde med water sensitive, liveable cities i Danmark? På dansk? Hvilke erfaringer har vi? Hvilke udfordringer? Hvordan kommer vi videre? Invitation sendes ud.
