Let's Scale Up! Urban Greening in the private realm, engaging and motivating community

Community connection to the urban forest is essential for its protection, enhancement and growth. We need to understand what has been successful in mobilising this connection and then scale it.

Urban greening community engagement, education and behaviour change programs are powerful tools to connect people with nature, to their green space and to each other.

Collectively, we can achieve the vision of a greener Melbourne. Across metropolitan Melbourne, councils and other partners are delivering over 70 highly successful urban greening engagement, education and behaviour change programs.

This report shines a spotlight on these programs to support councils and other practitioners in making informed decisions about delivering, adopting and expanding their urban greening programs.
