PARTIGAN: Participatory Greening of Arnhem and Nijmegen

In PARTIGAN we investigate how greening the living environment can stimulate contact with and use of urban green infrastructure, by especially more vulnerable citizens, and in that way improve their health and well-being and at the same time reduce socioeconomic health disparities. The project is carried out in Arnhem and Nijmegen, two cities already working on citizen participation and on incorporating the green environment in health and environmental policies.
