Zusammenfassung:From Feb 18-22, 2019, the 13th annual conference of the International Academic Association on Planning, Law, and Property Rights was held at Texas A & M University in College Station, Texas, USA. The conference was hosted by Professor Dawn Jourdan, executive associate dean and professor of landscape architecture and urban planning at the College of Architecture. During the four-day conference, 75 researchers and planning professionals from 29 different countries discussed sociopolitical challenges at the interface between planning, law, and property rights. In particular, participants were invited to address ongoing environmental changes and subsequent consequences for policy making and planning under the conference theme Preparing for Climate Change in the Planned and Unplanned City. For many countries facing impacts of climate change on socio-ecological systems, the issue of planning for climate change has gained increased importance over recent years. An increased number of people are suffering from the impacts of natural hazards and global warming, particularly in relation to the accessibility and availability of resources.
