Urban Greening for City Resilience
Cities around the world are facing increasing uncertainty due to the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, poor health, and social and economic inequality, amongst other things. 'Resilience', the ability to recover after a shock or stress, is an essential element for cities and communities to thrive in the 21st Century. Bringing nature into our cities is one of the best ways of increasing city resilience and addressing many of the crises we face.
This event brings together @londonnationalparkcity Rangers with external experts to discuss rewilding, food growing, nature education, urban forests and community building, with real examples from across London. The aim is to bring people together around the shared goal of urban greening, to inspire and share knowledge, and to catalyse further action towards resilience. Speakers: @tzoeten, Divya Hariramani, Katie Mills, Niall McEvoy, Rose Cowling, Luke Newcombe and @theotherdada.
