City Last edited Thursday 24 June 2021, 09:48 UTC Completed
Description

Define requirements for an open green space, for example using the EEA definition for publicly accessible green space per inhabitant. The EEA map showing Surface area of publicly accessible green space per inhabitant in core cities can be seen here

Methodology

The total area of green spaces divided by number of inhabitants multiplied by 100 000.

The information above is specific to Porto's evaluation plan. For general information on this indicator, please refer to its entry in the list of indicators. What follows below is what has been filled out by the city.
Rationale

With implementation of Demo Action 3 the goal is to promote sustainable practices in green spaces management, as using composting instead of chemical fertilizers in order to improve the environment as well as the well-being of the citizens.
The indicator was divided in two to understand the impact of the Demo Action 3.

Baseline data / definition

The baseline for #67.1 will be the actual total area of green spaces divided by number of inhabitants multiplied by 100 000.
The baseline for #67.2 will be zero since the demo action aren’t take yet.

Data sources / relevant databases

The data needed will be provided by CMP (DA3) and LIPOR (DA3).

Sector coverage
