Description
The ecological potential of urban green spaces for nature conservation and the benefit for socio-economics is often widely underestimated. This research project aims at identifying and assessing the above addressed potentials of urban grasslands in order to make recommendations for ecological optimizations. Furthermore, the project also involves a questionnaire study to include the ideas and expectations of the city population into this process.
