Project Overview

Problem

Increasing urban green spaces is one successful strategy to combat increased heat waves and urban heat island effect risks caused by climate change, with community participation in their planning and maintenance necessary for their success. Community participation ensures that urban green space projects address local needs and reflect the cultural, demographic, and development history of the community. However, in-person community collaboration can be costly to prepare, run, report and replicate.

Goal for MediaLab-Prado Workshop

Develop a fully functional prototype for the New York Restoration Project, and ideally a test project for the City of Madrid as well. Once the workshop is complete NYRP would like to use and test the prototype.
