Landscape services and basic landscape knowledge

A new website explains the under­standing of „landscape services“ and lists re­commen­dations and good practice examples – an outcome of a research project by the Space, Nature & Society unit with the University of Lausanne.

"Landscape services are landscape functions that provide direct economic, social and health benefits to individuals and society. In many cases, they have the character of public goods."
Keller and Backhaus, 2017

Available in German landschaftsleistungen.ch and French prestationspaysagères.ch
