New Regulations and Urban Protection Plans to Enhance Green Spaces and Biodiversity
The entry into force of Regulation (EU) 2024/1991 on Nature Restoration, on 18 August 2024, marks a significant turning point in the European Union’s (EU) environmental policy, introducing binding targets for urban ecosystems as well. In this context, the Urban Green Space Plan (or Urban Nature Plan) represents a key tool for planning, enhancing and expanding urban green spaces and biodiversity, while promoting, through local urban planning, a balance between the built and natural environments and between grey infrastructure and green and blue infrastructure.

These considerations highlight the need for dialogue among technical professionals and experts to explore the feasibility and practical implementation of the various levels of planning, identify the most effective approaches to their application, clarify the hierarchical relationships between the different plans in order to avoid unnecessary overlaps, and assess how existing planning instruments can be improved.
