A conceptual analytical framework for green infrastructure (GI) towards resilience building in urban contexts: A Stakeholders' collaboration perspective

Abstract

The conceptualization of green infrastructure (GI) has evolved from a limited focus on individual green spaces to a more systemic approach that considers the interconnectedness of green spaces to offer a long-lasting, all-natural remedy for climate and urban challenges. This evolution has led to greater recognition of the importance of integrating GI into urban planning, significantly shaped by stakeholder participation. This paper presents a conceptual framework aimed at supporting GI planning and implementation, with a strong emphasis on stakeholders' collaboration. The framework is built upon the evolving understanding of GI, influenced by societal values, scientific advancements, collaborations, and policy frameworks.
