The PARKS network aims to transform urban greenery management by placing citizens at the heart of public space care. The project facilitates the transfer of best practices through a collaborative ecosystem involving schools, professionals, and businesses, with a primary focus on active community participation. By empowering residents to lead stewardship efforts, PARKS ensures that urban green areas are co-managed, sustainable, and deeply rooted in the needs of the people who use them.
