Using innovative tools and methods within the maintenance of public green areas makes green infrastructure more biodiverse and resilient to climate change, but since urban parks are important windows to nature for many urban dwellers, these new methods also have great awareness-raising potential. In many public parks social, recreational and aesthetic functions have priorities, but even those frequented green areas - not to mention the lots of other, less used green areas - can be managed according to a differentiated and environmentally friendly approach so that they can be used simultaneously for social, recreational, educational, aesthetic and environmental purposes.
In the new case study of the BiodiverCity network we collected the most important trends and opportunities on how to foster sustainable and biodiverse maintenance of public green areas. Read the full case study HERE.
