概述 | Nature is important for the urban environment: trees grant shade during the summer months, while parks and lakes function as areas for relaxation, as places where the urban population comes together, and as space where children can experience nature and learn about it in an active way. Furthermore, the wellbeing of the urban population thrives under the benefits of nature, which include an extensive list of ecological benefits. These include, for example, climate change mitigation and a pleasant urban climate. Ecologic Institute is part of the European research project NATURVATION, which analyses nature-based solutions in urban areas. |
摘要 | Nature is important for the urban environment: trees grant shade during the summer months, while parks and lakes function as areas for relaxation, as places where the urban population comes together, and as space where children can experience nature and learn about it in an active way. Furthermore, the wellbeing of the urban population thrives under the benefits of nature, which include an extensive list of ecological benefits. These include, for example, climate change mitigation and a pleasant urban climate. Ecologic Institute is part of the European research project NATURVATION, which analyses nature-based solutions in urban areas. The project name "NATURVATION" is short for "Nature-based Urban Innovation". In this respect, 14 European institutions will research nature-based solutions for urban areas for a duration of four years. The project is coordinated by Durham University (UK). The following research question will be examined: In which cities are nature-based solutions taken up most widely? Why are they used more widely in some cities than in others? What are the impacts of greening cities? Which institutional and financial frameworks support the wider implementation of nature-based solutions and the greening of cities? An important part of the project is the collaboration with local organisations located in six European cities: Barcelona (Spain), Györ (Hungary), Leipzig (Germany), Malmö (Sweden), Newcastle (UK) and Utrecht (Netherlands). Ecologic Institute will participate in the following tasks within the interdisciplinary project:
Thereby, Ecologic Institute will contribute to the overarching political aim of this project: an increase in quantity and quality of nature in urban areas. |
