Municipalities are important actors in the promotion and protection of biodiversity.

With targeted attention to biodiversity concerns in spatial planning and building permit procedures, as well as in the wise management of their own facilities, cities and municipalities can create and maintain biodiversityrich settlements.

Several large cities offer good examples of this. However, little is known about the challenges and opportunities in medium-sized Swiss municipalities in creating biodiversityrich settlements.

  • This project explores implementation practices to understand the conditions, actors and resources, as well as leverage points in creating biodiversityrich settlements. You will conduct case study research in selected Swiss municipalities. You will use interviews and document analysis to develop an indepth, multilayered understanding of complex local biodiversity implementation practices. Your workplace will be at WSL and Eawag within the Blue-Green Biodiversity Initiative.
