La regione del Ruhr: una volta il „cuore industriale“ della Germania
Nordrhein-Westfalen estensione: 34.000 km²
popolazione: piu di 18 millioni
La regione Ruhr : 4. 434 kmq e 5. 6 milioni di popolazione Densita media: 1.209 abitanti per kmq, 11% della popolazione sono di origine stranieri: Pui di 50 % ( 265 000) sono di origine turca; La cifra media di disoccupati 13%, in qualche citta 18 %

The Ruhr Area: trends of structural changes
Decline of ‘old industries’ leads to:
1. Socio-economic effects (e. g. high unemployment rates, declines of local tax income, depreciation, less retail)2. Demographic effects (e. g. shrinking population, migration, concentration of disadvantaged population groups like migrants)3. Urbanistic effects (e. g. perforation of urban landscape, loss of quality in local infrastructure)

Shrinking cities – Il declino della industria mineraria e siderurgica
In 1960 153 000 operai erano occupati nella industria mineraria, in 1999 53 000 (disoccupati: 13.4 %)
La industria mineraria ha bisogna tanto spacio e il declino della industria lascia tanta superficie disturbato e contaminato.
La domanda: que fare con queste aree, forse ci sono 100 00 o 20 000 ettari nella zona del Ruhr (8 % vast land)
La idea del projetto „boschi selvatici urbani“ crece – un low budget progetto della Expo Emscher Park
Le grande terreni industriali cambiano faccia e si trasformano in aree verde e dopo in boschi

Come comincia:: La Expo Internationale (IBA) Emscherpark
Una vecchia regione industriale cambia su faccia: La Expo Internationale IBA Emscherpark 1989-1999 aiuta.
Non era una expo ordinaria ma un programma del futuro del Stato di Nordrhein Westfalen. L`obiettivo: migliorare la qualita della vita per gli abitanti, Il projetto e come un puzzle: ci sono piu di 120 posti, dove si puo visitare e vivere il
cambio. C`e possibile di visitare questi posti per bici: ci sono piu di 700 km di piste ciclabile.
La idea/visione del des Emscher Landschaftspark: un paesaggio recostruito: superficie 300 kmq, le zone verde die questa area sono collegati.
Le strutture industriale non sono distruito, sono una parte importante di questo parco. Un obiettivo concreto: regione selvatiche sull`aree industriale . Lasciamo le piante que
crescono. Il corpo forestale urbano: realita!!

Conceptual framework for the post-industrial urban landscape 1: wild forest areas
The areas left by industry are situated within the city, their size ranging between 10 and 200 ha
These areas are or will be accessible after decades of having been „forbidden land“ for the city dwellers
They will not be managed in a way forests are managed, there will be neither inventories nor biotop management plans nor nature conservation areas
Whoever wants to go there and use them is free to do so Land art is in some cases one way to „translate“ historical use and future
options There is and will be research done about the development of the areas
and about the use of and the perception towards the „new forest type“

Wild urban forests as green classroomsA research done by the universities of Dortmund and Bochum, Institutes of Geography and Didactics
We offer primary schools and pre-schools the use of the wild urban forests
We encourage the schools to develop concepts that suit the childrens daily lifes and experience
We prefer small groups to be able to concentrate on each individual child
We take special care of children with certain disabilities We concentrate on social competence
To be outside for children is experiencing freedom

shrinking and wastelandsWilderness vs. recultivation
Wilderness is a strong idea – in times of economic growth
Wilderness gives a contrast – under the conditions of urban density
Wilderness is different to everyday life – if you have a regular job
Recultivation – establishes new forms of landuse
Recultivation – shows that someone cares for the land and the neighbourhood
Recultivation - turns wastelands into a public space

Wild and planted urban forestareas have a variety of important functions for people and nature
There are some projects going on and yet to come:Within the scheme ofNetwork Emscher Park urbanForestry and in preparation of the RuhrArea being Europe`s Capitel of cultureIn 2010;Forests and (land) arts; intercultural dialogues on nature and forests; intergenerational forests,NeighbourWoods for deprived Neighbourhoods; forests for health
