Promoting citizens engagement in upgrading urban green spaces

Summary

Introduction

The project aims to set up models on how empowered civil eco-conscious groups and top down interventions can mutually reinforce each other to make cities more resilient and healthy, while also reducing the cities’ carbon footprint by empowering local groups as well as the city administration and by matching grass-root ecological initiatives with large scale resource efficiency interventions. In other words the project aims to achieve a paradigm shift towards sustainability in the society of the partner cities by fostering dialog between local governmental level and civil society.
