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.

这个项目探讨了策划景观在鼓励公众关注生物多样性方面的作用。我们将与我们的合作伙伴绿色地产（GE）合作，将项目的中心放在对本地和非本地植物混合物及其吸引传粉者的能力的比较调查上。我们将在谢菲尔德市社会弱势地区的不同绿色公共区域使用预种植的草皮草席，让当地社区参与到这个问题中来。草皮草席是预先生长的系统，可以快速建立多年生草甸。我们的合作伙伴Green Estate生产本地和非本地植物种类的草皮草席。由于项目长度较短，这些草席将使我们能够快速建立草甸，并通过公民科学和艺术社区活动来评估，策划景观如何激发公众对生物多样性的关注。在这个项目中，谢菲尔德大学景观建筑系的PI和RA与Green Estate合作，并在谢菲尔德绿色空间论坛的支持下，将分三个阶段进行：第一阶段。-在谢菲尔德市贫困地区的8个不同地点，共同设计绿色公共区域的草皮草席（两种不同的种子混合）。阶段2。-通过社区艺术和昆虫传粉者调查策划景观活动。阶段3。社区艺术和市民科学发现的临时展览。该项目的目标是：通过使用不同种子混合的草皮草席，了解如何在绿色空间中共同生产干预措施，帮助社区在其城市景观中整合生物多样性空间。了解公民科学和社区艺术项目在多大程度上有助于激励社会弱势地区关心生物多样性的态度。为了测试两种不同的草甸草席：a)本地草甸物种和b)本地草甸和非本地物种在谢菲尔德市八个不同的城市绿地中吸引昆虫传粉者的有效性。这些目标的结果和产出将用于景观设计指南，并有助于影响最佳实践和政策。通过了解哪些活动可以鼓励公民积极参与和关心当地的生物多样性，这些活动将使我们能够最大限度地利用分配给生物多样性保护的资源。
