== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

The Green Infrastructure potential of this case resides on the components around the area. The nature part is the river itself, the fauna and flora related with the river contributes the potential of this factor. In the other hand it is the engineering potential, a study of the recovery of the river course is required because some places are flooded.
The location of the place is near a urban area so it elevates the social potential and it increases the possibilities of activity. The area annexed to the riverside were fields for years, now the owners have abandoned the land farming, but the irrigation and plots remain, and this is the economic potential of the case.

== Author's perspective ==

My agricultural engineering view makes me find the benefit of the crops around the river. At present some plots are rented for the agricultural activity, but it's not organized and it doesn't create development opportunities. Also the environmental study and landscape architecture point of view helps to make the combination between the rivers recovery and the social integration.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==

Some context has already been written, but in detail I would like to highlight the following points:
*History, cultural and social features: in the fields of the area, the bad working of the irrigation generates natural ponds. Also, is has generated a social movement to cultivate small plots of land.
*Biogeography: belongs to a legally protected area. Regional park around the axes of the lower courses of the Manzanares and Jarama rivers.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==

- Reducing water losses

- Increase the quality of the natural environment (water, fishes, plants, etc...)

- Landscape improvement

- Benefits the local community (increase life quality)

- New economic business (eco-market)

== Potential for multifunctionality ==

*The social potential comes from the transformation of abandoned plots in a cooperative of urban gardens that remain used by the neighbors to feed themselves and having the possibility to create an economic benefit. The environmental potential comes from the natural protected area, regenerates the river side area could bring new habitats for animals and plants. The potential of the landscape is determined by converting the east of Madrid in a new green axis for the city.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** In the near future the first step is to organize urban gardens to establish order and higher profit and better use of resources.

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** In the long term it will become a new green axis of the city of Madrid, currently there is one in the southwest area of the city called "Madrid Rio".

== Summary and conclusion ==
*The set of actions in the case study are based on reviving a natural area, abandoned by the municipal authorities and wasted for citizens. The river Henares has a legal protection but hasn't a management plan by the government, this causes a continuous degradation to the river environment. In farming plots neglected close to the area of action were rented pieces of land where a few people work the land. The project is based on resolve these three issues: the area of natural protection, the alternative crops and the lack of management.

At present some plots are rented for the agricultural activity, but it's not organized and it doesn't create development opportunities. Also the environmental study and landscape architecture point of view helps to make the combination between the rivers recovery and the social integration.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==

Some context has already been written, but in detail I would like to highlight the following points:
*History, cultural and social features: in the fields of the area, the bad working of the irrigation generates natural ponds. Also, is has generated a social movement to cultivate small plots of land.
*Biogeography: belongs to a legally protected area. Regional park around the axes of the lower courses of the Manzanares and Jarama rivers.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==

- Reducing water losses

- Increase the quality of the natural environment (water, fishes, plants, etc...)

- Landscape improvement

- Benefits the local community (increase life quality)

- New economic business (eco-market)

== Potential for multifunctionality ==

*The social potential comes from the transformation of abandoned plots in a cooperative of urban gardens that remain used by the neighbors to feed themselves and having the possibility to create an economic benefit. The environmental potential comes from the natural protected area, regenerates the river side area could bring new habitats for animals and plants. The potential of the landscape is determined by converting the east of Madrid in a new green axis for the city.

== Summary and conclusion ==
*The set of actions in the case study are based on reviving a natural area, abandoned by the municipal authorities and wasted for citizens. The river Henares has a legal protection but hasn't a management plan by the government, this causes a continuous degradation to the river environment. In farming plots neglected close to the area of action were rented pieces of land where a few people work the land. The project is based on resolve these three issues: the area of natural protection, the alternative crops and the lack of management.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

The Green Infrastructure potential of this case resides on the components around the area. The nature part is the river itself, the fauna and flora related with the river contributes the potential of this factor. In the other hand it is the engineering potential, a study of the recovery of the river course is required because some places are flooded.
The location of the place is near a urban area so it elevates the social potential and it increases the possibilities of activity. The area annexed to the riverside were fields for years, now the owners have abandoned the land farming, but the irrigation and plots remain, and this is the economic potential of the case.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

The Green Infrastructure potential of this case resides on the components around the area. The nature part is the river itself, the fauna and flora related with the river contributes the potential of this factor. In the other hand it is the engineering potential, a study of the recovery of the river course is required because some places are flooded.
The location of the place is near a urban area so it elevates the social potential and it increases the possibilities of activity. The area annexed to the riverside were fields for years, now the owners have abandoned the land farming, but the irrigation and plots remain, and this is the economic potential of the case.

== Author's perspective ==

My agricultural engineering view makes me find the benefit of the crops around the river. At present some plots are rented for the agricultural activity, but it's not organized and it doesn't create development opportunities. Also the environmental study and landscape architecture point of view helps to make the combination between the rivers recovery and the social integration.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==

Some context has already been written, but in detail I would like to highlight the following points:
*History, cultural and social features: in the fields of the area, the bad working of the irrigation generates natural ponds. Also, is has generated a social movement to cultivate small plots of land.
*Biogeography: belongs to a legally protected area. Regional park around the axes of the lower courses of the Manzanares and Jarama rivers.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==

- Reducing water losses

- Increase the quality of the natural environment (water, fishes, plants, etc...)

- Landscape improvement

- Benefits the local community (increase life quality)

- New economic business (eco-market)

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Social potential, environmental potential and landscape potential. Converting the abandoned plots, new opportunities.

== Summary and conclusion ==
*The set of actions in the case study are based on reviving a natural area, abandoned by the municipal authorities and wasted for citizens. The river Henares has a legal protection but hasn't a management plan by the government, this causes a continuous degradation to the river environment.
In farming plots neglected close to the area of action were rented pieces of land where a few people work the land.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==
*''Biogeography, cultural features, overall character, history and dynamics''
AlAzhar park is considered to be the green lung inside a very dense and crowded Metropolitan area of Cairo city, it was built on an old landfill site and designed to be a very attractive monument of the capital.
The most interesting thing about this park that its completely surrounded by grey infrastructure from all directions with no green connectivity whatsoever to any existing park or even natural area, even the near castle or the ElMokattam Hill situated inside Cairo city, which makes it an ideal starting point of establishing a green infrastructure in the surrounding of the park to the city borders. In addition to the fact that this park has a very high number of plant species and water features (though most are artificial) rendering it to be an ecological center of the city and the heart of the first steps of a green infrastructure that can be constructed through the city.

== What are the overall objectives of your design? What are the specific objectives for enhancing green infrastrucutre? ==

''Please give a short written argumentation (not more than 150 words). It is ok if you have different or even contradicting objectives within your group. Just make it explicit at the beginning of your process ''

The city of Cairo is full with history, beautiful biuldings and a beautiful park, wich represents the biggest green area in the city. The park is surrounded by grey building and is isolated from other green area. The purpose of this design is to connect green areas, to create new ones, to use water in a sustainable way and to make people communite more with each other.

== Analytical drawings ==
''Please add four analytical sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) of your case. Every group member needs to contribute at least one drawing.''

== Design Synthesis ==
''Please analyse the individual approaches presented so far and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses (you may use the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWOT_analysis SWOT]analysis model). Try to create a synthesis and represent it with a plan and some sketches. You can still use drawings/sketches.''

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==
*''Biogeography, cultural features, overall character, history and dynamics''
AlAzhar park is considered to be the green lung inside a very dense and crowded Metropolitan area of Cairo city, it was built on an old landfill site and designed to be a very attractive monument of the capital.
The most interesting thing about this park that its completely surrounded by grey infrastructure from all directions with no green connectivity whatsoever to any existing park or even natural area, even the near castle or the ElMokattam Hill situated inside Cairo city, which makes it an ideal starting point of establishing a green infrastructure in the surrounding of the park to the city borders. In addition to the fact that this park has a very high number of plant species and water features (though most are artificial) rendering it to be an ecological center of the city and the heart of the first steps of a green infrastructure that can be constructed through the city.

== What are the overall objectives of your design? What are the specific objectives for enhancing green infrastrucutre? ==

''Please give a short written argumentation (not more than 150 words). It is ok if you have different or even contradicting objectives within your group. Just make it explicit at the beginning of your process ''

The city of Cairo is full with history, beautiful biuldings and a beautiful park, wich represents the biggest green area in the city. The park is surrounded by grey building and is isolated from other green area. The purpose of this design is to connect green areas, to create new ones, to use water in a sustainable way and to make people communite more with each other.

== Analytical drawings ==
''Please add four analytical sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes) of your case. Every group member needs to contribute at least one drawing.''

== Projective drawings ==
''Please add four projective sketches/drawings (or montages/schemes), of course with an emphasis on green infrastructure aspects. Every group member needs to contribute at least one drawing representing his/her individual ideas.''

== Design Synthesis ==
''Please analyse the individual approaches presented so far and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses (you may use the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWOT_analysis SWOT]analysis model). Try to create a synthesis and represent it with a plan and some sketches. You can still use drawings/sketches.''

== Summary of the collaborative process ==
''Please reflect on your collaborative design process. Which potentials have you encountered? What was most difficult? What does collaborative design mean for you? (approx 150 words).''

== Image Gallery ==
''You may add a series of images/photos in addition to the sketches/drawings''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

The Green Infrastructure potential of this case resides on the components around the area. The nature part is the river itself, the fauna and flora related with the river contributes the potential of this factor. In the other hand it is the engineering potential, a study of the recovery of the river course is required because some places are flooded.
The location of the place is near a urban area so it elevates the social potential and it increases the possibilities of activity. The area annexed to the riverside were fields for years, now the owners have abandoned the land farming, but the irrigation and plots remain, and this is the economic potential of the case.

== Author's perspective ==

My agricultural engineering view makes me find the benefit of the crops around the river. At present some plots are rented for the agricultural activity, but it's not organized and it doesn't create development opportunities. Also the environmental study and landscape architecture point of view helps to make the combination between the rivers recovery and the social integration.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==

Some context has already been written, but in detail I would like to highlight the following points:
*History, cultural and social features: in the fields of the area, the bad working of the irrigation generates natural ponds. Also, is has generated a social movement to cultivate small plots of land.
*Biogeography: belongs to a legally protected area. Regional park around the axes of the lower courses of the Manzanares and Jarama rivers.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==

- Reducing water losses

- Increase the quality of the natural environment (water, fishes, plants, etc...)

- Landscape improvement

- Benefits the local community (increase life quality)

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

The Green Infrastructure potential of this case resides on the components around the area. The nature part is the river itself, the fauna and flora related with the river contributes the potential of this factor. In the other hand it is the engineering potential, a study of the recovery of the river course is required because some places are flooded.
The location of the place is near a urban area so it elevates the social potential and it increases the possibilities of activity. The area annexed to the riverside were fields for years, now the owners have abandoned the land farming, but the irrigation and plots remain, and this is the economic potential of the case.

== Author's perspective ==

My agricultural engineering view makes me find the benefit of the crops around the river. At present some plots are rented for the agricultural activity, but it's not organized and it doesn't create development opportunities. Also the environmental study and landscape architecture point of view helps to make the combination between the rivers recovery and the social integration.

== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==

Some context has already been written, but in detail I would like to highlight the following points:
*History, cultural and social features: in the fields of the area, the bad working of the irrigation generates natural ponds. Also, is has generated a social movement to cultivate small plots of land.
*Biogeography: belongs to a legally protected area. Regional park around the axes of the lower courses of the Manzanares and Jarama rivers.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==

- Reducing water losses

- Increase the quality of the natural environment (water, fishes, plants, etc...)

- Landscape improvement

- Benefits the local community (increase life quality)

- New economic business (eco-market)

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Social potential, environmental potential and landscape potential. Converting the abandoned plots, new opportunities.
