Description :
This article examines landscape policies and the inclusion of the landscape level (geomorphology, land cover and coasts/island) in the spatial planning national framework in Greece (Attica, Thessaly, Epirus and the Cyclades). It investigates the most important processes of change for each type and links these processes with spatial planning policy. The identification of these dynamics sheds light on current and future trajectories of the changes of Greek landscapes, thus providing challenges for its management in the context of the European Landscape Convention.
