Samenvatting

Proposing and demonstrating the ways in which we need to rethink urban green spaces as cities, societies and environments evolve, renowned scholar Cecil C. Konijnendijk explores urban green spaces as essential parts of cities. Chapters offer a comprehensive look at how their roles have changed over time and will continue to do so, moving from their conventional purpose as areas for recreation to become spaces contributing to climate adaptation, biodiversity conservation and economic development.



This timely and innovative book argues that we need to rethink the ways in which we govern, design, plan and manage green spaces, as well as the funding of different kinds of green spaces and the narratives around what green spaces can and cannot do. Using a diverse range of case studies from across the globe, Konijnendijk offers practical suggestions for change in the future to make cities greener and healthier, and introduces new green space concepts such as urban groves and streetwoods.



This is an invigorating read for students and scholars of urban planning, landscape architecture, urban ecology and urban studies. Urban green space planners, designers and managers will also find the wealth of cases and practical suggestions make this an insightful read.
