| Short description: |
Extract: Across Europe, the presence of derelict land is a subject of concern in many countries.
Brownfield sites present particular challenges to national and regional policy
makers in terms of bringing the land back into beneficial use and in terms of cleaning
up contaminated land and groundwater. While contaminated land management is
aiming at the management or elimination of risks, the primary objective of brownfield
redevelopment is the reuse of the land and the reintegration of the properties
into the economic cycle. In this respect successful brownfield redevelopment policies
and strategies particularly need the combination of environmental approaches with
spatial and urban planning approaches to be integrated into policy approaches and
vice versa. To provide such a link between disciplines and issues, the Working
Group „Brownfield Redevelopment“ within the wider CLARINET project examined
this in depth.
