The management of urban land poses a variety of challenges<br />

for many stakeholders. Sustainable land management can<br />

stimulate investment, generate jobs and positively affects<br />

the quality of life positively. It contributes to the preservation<br />

of cultural and industrial heritage and helps to clean up and<br />

restore the environment. Last, but not least, it keeps urban<br />

life in urban agglomerations, restricts the extent of urban<br />

sprawl and minimises transportation and traffic needs. The<br />

current situation in many countries of the world indicates<br />

a growing need to exchange best practice approaches for<br />

land management. Land consumption, urban brownfields<br />

and urban sprawl are significant topics for various political<br />

initiatives.<br />

We invite you to participate in the 2nd International<br />

Conference on Managing Urban Land.<br />

It will bring together a wide range of professionals managing<br />

urban land to share best practice experience, problemsolving<br />

knowledge and the application of new techniques<br />

and tools. Current thinking and future trends in innovative<br />

land management will be highlighted and new approaches<br />

for public and private sector decision-making will be explored.<br />

The outcome of the conference will formally contribute<br />

to a number of European research activities and funding<br />

programmes in the field of European regional development.<br />
