Summary:
This paper presents the Saisons du Rhône project, led by the Paysage Projet Vivant (PPV) team and accompanied by Modélisation informatique du paysage (MIP) team at Geneva School of Engineering, Architecture and Landscape (HEPIA University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland). The aim of this ongoing project is to examine the needs and aspirations of the population and local stakeholders in relation to the Geneva Rhône, to discuss the short and long-term future of this territory, to imagine its possible evolutions and to envision quality living spaces for all forms of living. The idea here is to present the major challenges of the project: a sensitive approach, a multi-faceted methodology, a sustainable vision of habitability, and a collaborative, educational and federating approach. The creation of an Observatoire Paysager du Rhône Genevois (Landscape Observatory of Geneva's Rhone) is the cornerstone of the project and illustrates the need for sociohydrosystems to adapt in the face of global change.
