Alfried Krupp Institute for Advanced Study, Greifswald, Nov 8–09, 2023

International Workshop: Resilience – Meanings, Practices, and Capacities 
of Change in Nordic Landscapes Interdisciplinary Centre for Baltic Sea 
Region Research (IFZO, Shared Heritage, sub-project of the BMPF project 
Fragmented Transformation), Research Centre for Manors in the Baltic Sea 
Region in cooperation with Alfried Krupp Institute for Advanced Study

In recent years, resilience has experienced increasing meaning and has 
become both a buzzword and a guiding principle in the face of various 
crises and hazards. Although interpreted differently in human science 
and planning professions, the common ground is the ability of systems to 
adapt and recover from shocks. Thus, resilience is also captured in 
research as a learning process and an option to withstand future 
unpredictable catastrophes.
The workshop will focus on urban and rural landscapes in northern Europe 
(Baltic Sea region and Scandinavia) to determine whether resilience can 
be made sustainable as a guiding principle and model for coping with the 
profound changes in landscapes in the Anthropocene. By asking what makes 
cities, gardens, and landscapes resilient, we aim to address how change 
is to be understood as an immanent characteristic of resilience in the 
landscape context: is it about short-term reactions or long-term 
transformation? Is it about stability through transformation or 
maintaining certain qualities despite transformation? What is and how 
does it deal with the connection of design interventions, nature, and 
society?
Therefore, resilience will be examined as a cultural and planning 
practice on the one hand and as a negotiation process on the other. 
Combining the humanities, natural sciences, and planning professions, we 
want to explore the capacities of resilience concerning reflecting 
resilience strategies and discourses in the humanities and in planning 
professions on their transferability and differences between various 
landscapes.
