Community assessment: How the project team learned about the community’s needs
This is an island-wide project that involves various cities and municipalities. The project, focusing on the protection of pollinators and environmental integrity is the first of its kind on the island.
Given the present state of climatic conditions and anticipated changes in climate, the need for our project is obvious. Already now, Cyprus suffers from ongoing desertification, which affects biodiversity of flora and fauna, in general, and those of pollinators, in particular. The “urban heart island effect” intensifies warming in cities and lads to serious threats for urban inhabitants. Thus, measures to reduce this risk, such as green roofs and a general increase in green spaces are obvious steps to reduce adverse consequences of climate change in cities.
