Green gentrification and changing planning policies in Vienna?
Adapting urban spaces to the impacts of climate change is one of today’s key challenges, especially when it comes to avoiding the associated social trade-offs which are often overlooked in planning and policy regulation. Based on a review of existing policy and legal documents from Vienna, we analyse how mitigation of green gentrification is already included in Viennese urban planning and policy, and how the administration tries to manage it strategically. Results show that while risks are generally limited, current policy and planning strategies show no awareness of the emerging risks of green gentrification as unintended consequences.
