This project investigates the role of curated landscapes in encouraging the public to care for biodiversity. Working with our partner Green Estate (GE), we will centre the project around a comparative investigation of native and non-native plant mixes and their ability to attract pollinators. We will engage the local community in this question using pre-grown turf meadow mats across different green public areas in socially disadvantaged areas in the city of Sheffield.Turf meadow mats are pre-grown systems that allow rapid establishment of perennial meadows. Our partner, Green Estate, produces turf meadow mats of native and non-native plant species. Due to the short project length, these mats will allow us to rapidly establish meadows and assess, through citizen science and art community activities, how curated landscapes can stimulate the public to caring for biodiversity.During this project, the PI and RA of the Department of Landscape Architecture of the University of Sheffield, in collaboration with Green Estate, and with the support of Sheffield Green Spaces Forum, will work on three stages:Stage 1.- Co-design interventions in green public areas with turf meadow mats (of two different seed mixes) in 8 different locations in deprived areas of the city of Sheffield.Stage 2.- Curated landscape activities through community art and insect pollinator surveys with citizen science.Stage 3. Temporary exhibitions of community art and citizen science findings.The objectives of the project are:To understand how the co-production of interventions in green spaces, through the use of turf meadow mats with different seed mixes, can help communities integrate spaces for biodiversity in their urban landscapes.To understand to what extent citizen science and community art projects can help incentivise an attitude of care for biodiversity in socially disadvantaged areas.To test two different turf meadow mats: a) native meadow species and b) native meadow and non-native species for their effectiveness in attracting insect pollinators in eight different urban green spaces in the city of Sheffield.The results and outputs of these objectives will be used to feed into landscape architecture guidelines and help influence best practice and policy. They will enable us to maximise the use of resources allocated for the protection of biodiversity by understanding which activities can encourage citizens to positively engage with and care for local biodiversity.

该项目调查了策划景观在鼓励公众照顾生物多样性方面的作用。与我们的合作伙伴绿色庄园（GE）合作，我们将围绕对本地和非本地植物混合物的比较调查及其吸引传粉媒介的能力进行比较调查。我们将使用在谢菲尔德市社会弱势群体的不同绿色公共区域的预先种植的草皮草地垫来参与这个问题。TurfMeadow Mats是预生长的系统，可快速建立多年生草地。我们的合作伙伴绿色庄园生产了本地和非本地植物物种的草皮草地垫。 Due to the short project length, these mats will allow us to rapidly establish meadows and assess, through citizen science and art community activities, how curated landscapes can stimulate the public to caring for biodiversity.During this project, the PI and RA of the Department of Landscape Architecture of the University of Sheffield, in collaboration with Green Estate, and with the support of Sheffield Green Spaces Forum, will work on three stages:Stage 1.- Co-design interventions in在谢菲尔德市贫困地区的8个不同地点，在8个不同地点（两种不同种子混合物）的绿色公共区域。 different seed mixes, can help communities integrate spaces for biodiversity in their urban landscapes.To understand to what extent citizen science and community art projects can help incentivise an attitude of care for biodiversity in socially disadvantaged areas.To test two different turf meadow mats: a) native meadow species and b) native meadow and non-native species for their effectiveness in attracting insect pollinators in eight different urban green spaces in the city of谢菲尔德。这些目标的结果和产出将用于融入景观建筑指南，并有助于影响最佳实践和政策。它们将使我们能够通过了解哪些活动可以鼓励公民积极地与当地生物多样性进行积极互动并关心分配的资源来最大程度地利用用于保护生物多样性的资源。
