Project Description

Una Salute nella Mia Città

A Pilot Citizen Science Community Project
Funded by the National Biodiversity Future Center – Spoke 7 Sapienza

"Una Salute nella Mia Città" ("One Health in My City") is a pilot citizen science project rooted in the One Health paradigm, which emphasizes the deep interconnection between human health, environmental health, and biodiversity. It aims to raise awareness about the importance of protecting biodiversity as a shared global responsibility.

Urban areas are increasingly recognized as strategic spaces for promoting and embodying the value of nature and biodiversity. Within this context, the project focuses on urban green areas—how they are designed, used, and perceived—and their impact on healthier, more sustainable cities.

The project seeks to explore how citizens perceive, experience, and interact with green spaces in their neighborhoods, while collecting valuable data to inform future initiatives in collaboration with local stakeholders.

The project aims to involve citizens and experts in exploring the role of urban green spaces in promoting mental health and well-being. It encourages interdisciplinary collaboration and active public participation to support more sustainable and inclusive urban planning.

Key outcomes include insights into the perception, use, and accessibility of urban green spaces, as well as public awareness of urban biodiversity.

The following scores were calculated using a statistically-driven machine-learning approach, a type of AI that learns to perform a task by analysing patterns in data. This is an experimental approach to citizen-science impact assessment, and the exact reasoning behind the scores is not explainable. The scores represent a best guess of the impact the project is having in each domain. Scores are recalculated and updated when “View impact report” is clicked.
