About us
Social-Ecological Systems Analysis Lab was established in 2018. The lab is the part of the Institute of Urban and Regional Studies and Planning in the Faculty of Economics and Sociology.
Urban social-ecological systems represent a key research area for us at the moment. We focus on the distribution of urban green and blue infrastructure within a city from the perspective of environmental justice, on the perception and value of green and blue infrastructure for urban inhabitants, and on the relevant governance settings. Lodz (Łódź), the third largest city in Poland, is our main case study area, and we can be proud of the fact that our research findings regularly translate into the local planning practices. However, we also work in other cities in Poland and abroad, closely collaborating with colleagues from those cities.
Our main research intrests:
-
urban green spaces,
-
human-nature relations,
-
environmental justice,
-
environmental valuation,
-
ecosystem services.
