Resilient and adaptable urban landscapes: low input woody meadows

世界各地的城市都在城市绿地上投资数亿美元。该项目旨在提高低投入公共景观的质量，让我们的城市更宜居。典型的低维护种植园的多样性、观赏性和功能性都较低。该项目希望通过利用澳大利亚灌木地作为木本草地的模板，开发一种新的低成本和有弹性的城市绿化方法。通过跨学科研究和与八个合作伙伴组织的合作，预期成果包括广泛采用弹性、管理友好型木本草地的知识和技能共享，以增强和扩大澳大利亚和世界各地的城市绿地。

Cities around the world are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in urban green spaces. This project aims to improve the quality of low input public landscapes and make our cities more liveable. Typical low maintenance plantings have low diversity, visual appeal and function. This project expects to develop a novel low-cost and resilient approach to urban greening by utilising Australian shrublands as templates for woody meadows. Through interdisciplinary research and collaborations with eight Partner Organisations, the expected outcomes include knowledge and skill sharing for widespread adoption of resilient, management-friendly woody meadows to enhance and expand urban green spaces in Australia and around the world.
