Green urban infrastructure in Spain: Facts and Perceptions Multifunctional Urban Agriculture
Urban green infrastructure in Spain aims to address the evolution of a sector with a deep-rooted tradition in Spain, but that has traditionally been forgotten in urban designs and socioeconomic policies. The lack of a national database and the lack of global studies on this topic has led to the proposal of a hybrid model of analysis: facts and perceptions. Regarding facts, different documents prepared by professionals in urban agriculture and gardening have been included, and in terms of perceptions, the prevailing ideas in society are addressed through nationwide surveys of professionals and users. Academics, scientists, entrepreneurs, civil servants and civil society in general acknowledge that it is a sector on the rise with a very positive outlook, but it requires social acceptance and real support for future projects. The dynamic approach of this book can be highlighted, with the urgent need for further studies. Some of the most frequent errors in the management of urban green infrastructure are also noted. Finally, a number of reflections and recommendations are made on Nature-Based Solutions, a key instrument for the sustainability of the urban environment.
