| Title | Partnerships for financing, installing, and maintaining urban forest and tree projects |
| Summary | This thesis aims to answer questions related to urban forest and tree projects from the perspective of their implementation across. In Europe, financing urban trees relies on municipality budgets which are shrinking parallel to the phenomenon of high urbanization, loss of biodiversity, climate change and other events threatening our civilization. The need for urban nature, including urban trees and the ecosystem services they provide is increasing. Best practices for financing urban trees and upscaling these methods are essential. This thesis examines cases from three cities: Budapest, Vienna, and Utrecht. It provides information on the partnership structure of the selected case studies. Recognizing the incentivizing and disincentivizing factors of project implementation is essential to improve mechanisms related to re-naturing cities. The thesis discusses some practical and policy recommendations and hopes to contribute to the improvement of our dense cities. |
