Abstract
- Beyond any doubt, urban green helps to improve residents' quality of life. The lack of greenery in Greek cities is now provoking strong reactions from citizens, who vigorously defend the protection of green spaces. Municipalities in Greece generally lack infrastructure and services, mainly due to the inefficient administrative structure, the lack of specialized staff and the limited use of new technology. The tools of a modern environmental policy which will improve urban planning and management are mainly legal, financial, administrative and institutional. The objective of this study is to investigate the views of the technical employees of the Municipality of Thessaloniki on issues related to improving planning and management of urban green, in order to formulate appropriate policies and to draw useful conclusions.
