Jørgen Primdahl, landskabsarkitekt, Ph.d.

Professor, countryside planning

The rural landscape is my primary research field focusing on functions, management, and policy interventions. A primary goal for my research is a deeper understanding of landscape management practices, landscape change, and the role of planning and various forms of policy interventions in protecting, maintaining and enhancing landscape services and values. Another goal is to contribute to improved policy and planning approaches and solutions concerning the protection, maintenance, and enhancement of rural landscapes.

Currently I working with new approaches to landscape governance and regional landscape planning.
