Abstract
A new trend is observed nowadays: half the world’s population lives in urban areas, which means that cities become denser. The increase of population density in urban areas makes the soil of such regions is used in an unbalanced ecological way, affecting not only biodiversity but also the variety of natural resources and the relationship among people, city and environment. Green areas and healthy food production must find their way back to the cities.The Green Urban Design Network promotes the protection, creation and connection of green spaces in urban areas, encouraging biodiversity, food security, recreational activities in healthier environments, creating new job opportunities as well as meeting places for different generations. Additionally, this network offers an interdisciplinary strategy for urban space, making usable things that would be wasted and integrating the ecological design to innovative technologies. The connection of green areas helps cities to manage and mitigate the complex conditions of climate change.
