On June 1st 2026, starting at 4:00 p.m., the guest lecture by Dr. Ozgur Gocer took place at BOKU University. Dr. Gocer is a lecturer in the Faculty of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University of Sydney, specialising in sustainable architecture. Here she is dedicated to topics of how nature-based solutions (e.g. vertical greening or urban greening strategies) can be integrated into buildings and cities in order to improve their ecological, economic and social performance. Through her work, the guest lecturer contributes to the further development of the discussion on circular economy, climate-friendly design and the implementation of nature-based solutions in urban areas. 

The team of the Institute of Engineering Biology and Landscaping is glad that we were able to win Dr. Gocer for a guest lecture, give this important topic a stage and fuel a rethink!
