Infraestructura azul-verde, Ciudades inteligentes, Ciudad Internacional de Songdo, Desarrollo urbano, Biodiversidad, Ciudad planificadaResumen
En las últimas décadas, la infraestructura azul-verde (BGI) se ha convertido en uno de los pilares del desarrollo urbano sostenible, equilibrando la restauración ecológica, la resiliencia climática y el bienestar humano. Las ciudades de todo el mundo tienen diferentes marcos políticos, prioridades de diseño y estructuras de gobernanza que determinan la implementación de los sistemas BGI. En Corea del Sur, en particular, el diseño de Songdo destaca cómo una ecociudad planificada de arriba abajo integra la BGI con tecnologías de ciudad inteligente y medidas de adaptación al clima. En la ciudad de Nueva York, la implementación descentralizada y las asociaciones público-privadas han sido fundamentales para ampliar la BGI. En Singapur, el Estado-nación ilustra un enfoque coordinado a nivel nacional, posicionando la BGI como infraestructura ecológica y como estrategia crítica de adaptación al clima. Viena ofrece un modelo europeo contrastante, donde la BGI está estrechamente relacionada con las tradiciones de planificación a largo plazo. En conjunto, estos diversos modelos de gobernanza ponen de relieve cómo la BGI puede adaptarse a los contextos ambientales, sociales y políticos locales, al tiempo que contribuye a la resiliencia climática global y al disfrute humano.
