From August 24 to 30, 2024, the 35th International Geographical Congress took place in Dublin, where not only scientists from more than 80 countries, but also representatives of the Research Group presented their projects to an international audience of experts.

Henriette Betram and Maik Kiesler from the Research Group chaired a session entitled "Celebrating difference and innovation at the margins: suburban development and city expansion in the 21st century" to offer the "New Suburbanity" a platform for international exchange and points of contact with suburban spatial development in other planning systems.

As part of the session, Svenja Bochinski (as link) presented initial results on landscape policy in the growing city of Hamburg on behalf of the DFG-funded research project "City-regional, participation-oriented landscape policy 'in the making': a discourse-theoretical, praxeological perspective" (as link).
