Butterfly gardens for schools and disadvantaged people

The objective is to foster butterfly populations and diversity in Turin by creating a network of green areas. Proper management and the presence of suitable plants (food plants and nectar sources for the life cycle) allows butterflies to cross the urban area while involving people with mental or physical disabilities to fight social stigma and foster social inclusion.

The NbS combines scientific and social goals:

  • scientific monitoring of butterflies
  • involvement of fragile people with mental or physical disabilities against isolation and social stigma.
  • ...

Green corridor and local natural heritage enhancement

The NbS addresses societal and environmental issues that improve living conditions inluding:

  • Creating an ecosystem path to redevelop areas that lacked character
  • Implementing NbS in an area with risk of „heat island effects“
  • Fostering processes of citizen engagement and raising awareness among residents
  • Increasing biodiversity by planting pollinator- friendly species
  • Developing a sense of community, spatial belonging and co-ownership to ensure co-maintenance by residents together with the city administration

New green roof at WOW

The NbS addresses multiple dimensions:

  • Experimenting with technical and administrative issues relevant to green roofing technical implementation.
