Description:
This paper reflects on the tendency in city planning to dwell on social/environment dilemmas, which often paralyse or hinder the comprehensive impacts of potential interventions for the lack of an integrative framework that resolves dichotomies. It then centres its attention on the concepts of green infrastructure and nature-based solutions as fundamental strategies to maximise ecosystem services. Finally, it argues for grey-green-blue strategies aimed at contributing to dissolving perceived dichotomous views of challenges and solutions to cities leading towards the development of new systemic and integrative frameworks.
