ETH SPUR

Ist die Siedlungsqualität hoch, wird Verdichtung akzeptiert. Ein aktuelles Forschungsprojekt der ETH Zürich bestätigt dieses Erfolgsrezept. Mehr dazu in der News (espacesuisse.ch/de/news/wie-ve…) und im vertiefenden Artikel (espacesuisse.ch/de/im-fokus/wa…). @espacesuisse @spur_eth

Explore the impact of cities on ecology and transport at our Urban Research Seminar on April 17th! Early career researchers will share fresh perspectives and innovative methodologies. Engage in talks and discussions, with networking at the apero. irl.ethz.ch/research/d-bau…

Lange Planungsverfahren und Bauverzögerungen in Schweizer Städten liessen sich früh vermeiden. Denn gewisse Arten von Verdichtung werden von Bewohnern eher akzeptiert als andere, wie ein neuer Bericht zeigt: brnw.ch/21wIG5n @kaufmada @WickiMichael @spur_eth

What can cities do to promote acceptance of #densification? A new white paper by @spur_eth shows what Swiss residents are more likely to accept - and what this means for planning practice & local policy. brnw.ch/21wIG2N #UrbanPlanning @kaufmada @WickiMichael

Just out: How can Swiss cities balance growth with sustainability through densification? Our white paper discusses how socio-ecological approaches can foster public acceptance and what strategies cities can implement for urban development 👇🏽 ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev… @ETH_en

New paper published by @EleLutz , @WickiMichael and @kaufmada in E&P B: Urban Analytics and City Science @envplanb🚨 The article shows that densification around existing train stations increases inequality in access to public transit 🚊🏠 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Ever wonder how cities become divided? Our new #openaccess issue explores "urban borderlands": zones where divisions blur and coexist, and their potential for contestation, negotiation, and ultimately, a better understanding of cities (🧶). Issue: shorturl.at/bLN68

Addressing climate change demands a varied policy toolkit, including more assertive interventions that can face public opposition. @DAHeyen (@oekoinstitut) & @WickiMichael (@spur_eth) call for a surge in research on ‘governable acceptability factors’➡️bit.ly/3TKpG5K

In this article, the authors explore how policy design & communication can boost public support for climate action. #ClimatePolicy #Research #ClimateAction

New publication in @Climate_Policy! "Increasing public support for climate policy proposals: a research agenda on governable acceptability factors" @WickiMichael w/ @DAHeyen dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.…

***Just published*** New article from @spur_eth about the prevalence and the social stratification of housing precarity in Berlin, Chicago, LA, London, NY, and Paris. Published in the Journal of the American Planning Association #OpenAccess tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

URBAN RESEARCH SEMINARS 1st and 29th November, @2pm (room HIL H 35.1). A bottom-up and transdisciplinary network of early career researchers at D-BAUG and beyond (with an apéro 🙂🥂 More details on all presentations 👉 irl.ethz.ch/research/d-bau…

I had the opportunity to give a talk on #cycling practices and politics ⁦@spur_eth⁩. Thanks to ⁦@kaufmada⁩ ⁦@SDVolk⁩ ⁦@WickiMichael⁩ and colleagues. Here is a nice view of sunny Zürich from the Eth link bus!

I had the honor of giving the Eurasian Geography and Economics keynote at the 10th International Urban Geographies of Post-Communist States conference. This year it was in Riga. The opening was held in this gorgeous Stalinka that has been mostly de-Sovietized. Very fitting venue.

It is an honor to lead the Network City and Landscape (NSL) at ETH Zürich for the next two years. In this interview, I sketch the priorities that I see for NSL nsl.ethz.ch/our-goal-is-to…

Looking forward to giving a talk on #cycling practices and politics for @spur_eth next Monday in Zurich! And to meeting ETH colleagues! Open to anyone interested… spur.ethz.ch

SPUR researchers @WickiMichael , @hofer_kat and @auhirsch recently supported @ETH4D @KNUSTGH - @ETH_en Global Development Summer School 2023 with the theme “Rethinking Mobility” virtually and in location in Kumasi, Ghana. Photo credits: Nicolas Mertens

Le développement vers l’intérieur est une réalité, qui ouvre des champs intéressants pour la recherche. L’EPFZ a mené plusieurs études sur ces thématiques. Pour en savoir plus: espacesuisse.ch/fr/actualites/… @spur_eth @espacesuisse

Die Innenentwicklung findet statt – und bietet interessante Felder für die Forschung zur baulichen Verdichtung, deren sozialen Auswirkungen und gesellschaftlichen Akzeptanz. Mehr zu aktuellen Resultaten der @ETH in der News von @espacesuisse: espacesuisse.ch/de/news/eth-fo… @spur_eth
