Great pleasure was it to host an ERASMUS-funded visit by Prof. Dr. Christophe Demazière and by Ass. Prof. Dr. Divya Leducq at our TUM chair. They both are teaching urban and regional planning in the Master’s programme ‘Planning & Sustainability’ at the Ecole Polytéchnique de Tours. During their stay in Munich they contributed to our seminar on the Airport Region of Munich with inspiring insights into the history of the mid-sized airport of Tours and its potential futures, given the post-COVID19 dynamics and the French soon-to-be in effect law on restricting domestic flights to a duration of 2.5 hours or more; shorter destinations are to be organised by high-speed rail. We are looking forward to visit Tours in the fall of this year and continue our exchange on research and teaching matters.

Project Documentation: "Landsberg am Lech - Ready for 2055?"
Students from the Master's programs in Urbanism and Architecture worked for several months to look at the long-term development of the town of Landsberg. The aim was to design a long-term spatial strategy. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the region and a methodology for working with future trends, the next 30 years were examined. Four student teams each present a vision of the future for “Landsberg 2055” and use an overall strategy and specific spatial proposals to show possible development paths for the region and local stakeholders.
The four student teams focus on different topics and show different development paths for the year 2055. How can resilient land use, inclusive mobility and social cohesion be strengthened and interlinked to achieve sustainable growth? How can the prospects of young residents be improved and education and innovation become key catalysts for positive development? How can Landsberg become a municipality that leads by example through the consistent implementation of sustainable mobility, a liveable city center and a self-sufficient energy supply? And how can Landsberg carry today's qualities into the future in order to be “just as great, only better” in 2055?
