Societal functions of greenery to achieve a healthy city

Almost three out of four EU citizens live in urban areas and this number is anticipated to further grow. All these people need an inclusive, healthy, resilient, safe and sustainable living environment. One important challenge is to provide universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible, 'green' and public spaces by 2030.

At the same time, soil sealing expands and intensifies, while 'green-areas' diminish. Developing green roofs offers opportunities for climate adaptation in urban areas.
