Training event - Dresden Land Use Symposium 2024

The Dresden Land Use Symposium (DFNS), which has been held annually since 2009, is one of the most important specialist conferences in the field of land analysis, land monitoring and sustainable land management and was selected as a training event for an employee of the social geography sub-project due to various thematic interfaces with the ERDF project Main Pro. The aim was to gather knowledge and experience from other projects and from current research in order to be able to take this into account in the Main Pro project.

As part of DFNS 2024, which took place from June 11 to 12, 2024 at the Ramada by Wyndham on the south-eastern outskirts of the Saxon state capital of Dresden, current topics were presented and discussed from a scientific, municipal and private sector perspective in numerous lectures, workshops and speed talks. The main topics of this year's symposium were land policy and land management, GIS-based analyses of land use, climate adaptation and further studies on land cover.
