Urban Riverfronts and Floods – Practice, Research and Teaching of Landscape Architecture
Original language description
The paper addresses the issue of urban riverfronts from the perspective of landscape architecture in research, teaching, and practice, with a focus on flood events. Using examples from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, it examines the planning and implementation of flood control measures in active flood zones and identifies legislative and institutional barriers. It presents three theoretical approaches (Water-Sensitive Urban Design, Sponge City, Room for the River) and emphasizes the role of the state policy, interdisciplinary cooperation, and community involvement in implementation. The practical part describes experiences with teaching at Mendel University in Brno. The studio topic for the winter semester of 2024 were rivefronts in the town of Jeseník, unexpectedly shaped by a devastating flood. The adaptation of cities to climate change requires experts capable of multidisciplinary cooperation and a holistic approach to the problems of urban riverfronts, with an awareness of the connections in the landscape beyond the city limits. Linking research and teaching in landscape architecture can significantly support the transfer of innovative methods into practice.
