FOCUS ON
- GARDENS UNDER PRESSURE
Gardens are vanishing, or becoming degraded and poorly maintained. Not all at once, but slowly — squeezed by concrete, scorched by heat, fragmented by urban sprawl, undervalued due to lack of knowledge. Across Europe, green spaces that once anchored communities are under pressure from multiple fronts: climate disruption, aggressive development, political indifference. This page gathers stories of places at risk, citizens who resist, and landscapes that still hold — for now.
