Juan Pablo Schuster    

I am Juan Pablo Schuster, lawyer from Chile, Master in Human Settlements and Environment, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, PhD student in Geography, Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona.

My interests are related to urban sprawl, urban planning, environmental conservation and legal geography. I am developing a research that seeks to bring legal geography closer to Latin American cities, investigating the role of urban regulations in promoting or hindering sustainable urban development.

Research areas:
