Urban open space governance and management today and in the future

Abstract

This chapter sums up the main traits described in previous chapters and presents some reflections on the future of urban open space (UOS) governance and management. These touch upon related societal needs and challenges, as well as other starting points for the focus on UOS and its framing, relations and values. Some solutions to contemporary challenges are suggested and ways forward for the practices of UOS governance and management are sketched out.
