Assessment of Green Infrastructure in Urban Areas for Climate Change Resilience and Biodiversity Conservation

Project Abstract

Urban areas face numerous challenges due to climate change impacts and loss of biodiversity. Green infrastructure has emerged as a sustainable solution to mitigate these challenges by enhancing resilience and conserving biodiversity. This research project aims to assess the effectiveness of green infrastructure in urban areas for climate change resilience and biodiversity conservation. The study will explore how green infrastructure practices can be integrated into urban planning and development to address these issues.
