Urban Green Structure: Study of the relation between public space morphology and flora and fauna diversity in the city of Porto

The main objectives of this
project are:

  1. Link research on urban
    biodiversity and spatial character;
  2. Raise greater public
    awareness of biodiversity in urban areas;
  3. Promote interdisciplinary
    research into urban biodiversity for a better understanding of the interactions
    between humans, urban biodiversity and global biodiversity;
  4. Establish a connection
    mechanism between researchers, planners, policy makers and citizens to improve
    the integration of research findings into urban design;
  5. Promote education in urban biodiversity and design.
