Abstract
Green areas are emerging as a vehicle for change towards more sustainable cities. Green areas include, among other facilities, parks, gardens, and urban gardens. These facilities should be designed in an inclusive and integrating way, allowing their use by anyone. Their incorporation into urban policies has many advantages: a more naturalized landscape, improving the microclimate of urban neighborhoods, biodiversity, and the health, both physical and mental, of users and neighbors. They can also serve as an instrument for the education of citizens in environmental topics, healthy eating, and ethical and social awareness, from a very early age to the elderly.
