Urban biodiversity monitoring
Ciclo “BiodiversiTalks. Politiche, piani, progetti e co-creation per la biodiversità urbana”

The BiodiversiTalks are a series of meetings as part of the Spoke 5 research activities of the National Biodiversity Future Center (NBFC): the fifth session offers a review of reflections, ideas, and experiences to explore and understand how social impact assessment procedures contribute to monitoring and conserving biodiversity in urban contexts. Monitoring urban biodiversity and its social-ecological impacts in urban areas is evolving and contains a variety of perspectives from around the world in academia and practice. Through this session, we review current progress for social impact monitoring systems and social-ecological framework developments (NBFC act. 7.3.3) alongside exploring similar experiences on impact measurement with the use of biodiversity and nature as a critical factor around Europe. We reflect and discuss plural perspectives from planners, biologists, and sociologists on social impact assessment.
