Urban greening

Reference Type
Journal, Research (Article)

Urban greening is an integrated, city-wide approach to the planting, care and management of all vegetation in a city to secure multiple environmental, social and economic benefits for both urban and peri-urban dwellers (Sorenson 1996). Urban greening must serve the needs of urban residents who should also participate in the greening process. Urban greening is an interdisciplinary field. Some of the diverse professions that influence urban greening are sociology, psychology, economics, landscape architecture, geography, hydrology, soil science, agriculture, forestry, biology, geology and public administration.
