Mapping Beyond the Monodisciplinary Approach: Exploring the Potential of Mapping in Comparative Research Methods

Humanity is facing a wide range of transitions-from the climate crisis and energy transition to migration and digitalization-unfolding at multiple scales.These transformations impact urban, rural, and even uninhabited landscapes, often in cumulative or reinforcing ways.Industrial regions, cross-border territories, capital cities, and river-port areas exemplify the spatial intersections where global pressures are materializing.The scale and urgency of these challenges demand innovative, interdisciplinary approaches that account for the social, environmental, political, and economic dimensions of space.
