摘要：Green infrastructure is a well-established concept in European strategies and policies. This article defines green infrastructure from the perspective of landscape planning and landscape architecture. It traces the origin of green infrastructure in well-known concepts from the 19th and 20th century. The article elaborates on green infrastructure in European Union, in terms of the EU Strategy on Green Infrastructure and the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020. Green infrastructure is discussed from the view-point of Natura 2000 and EU policies in the field of regional development, climate change and water management. This paper examines interactions between the concept of green infrastructure, the Common Agricultural Policy and the new EU Forest Strategy and then finally presents the reports, studies and international research and scientific projects on green infrastructure.
