Where should all the trees go? – delivering the insights (NY17000)
What was it all about?
This short 2018 project followed previous nursery investment Where should all the trees go? An investigation of the impact of tree canopy cover on socio-economic status and wellbeing in LGAs (NY16005).
The initial project looked at changes to canopy cover in Australian’s metropolitan local government areas (LGAs), identifying priority areas for greening across Australia and monitoring progress towards the 202020 Vision goal of making Australia’s urban areas 20 per cent greener by the year 2020. It also looked at the relationships between tree canopy cover and socio-economic, health and wellbeing factors in LGAs.
Project NY17000 was responsible for taking findings from the earlier research and delivering them at workshop-style ‘Green Light Tour’ information sessions across the country for industry leaders, landscape architects, government department staff and other relevant stakeholders.
