Description:
The Co-Bio project aims to bolster the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030 by specifically targeting urban biodiversity. The project will create a guide that equips local stakeholders with the knowledge, skills, and tools to co-create solutions for enhancing urban biodiversity.
The Co-Bio project will result in capacity building of professional and volunteer adults within the public, private and civil society sector in how to co-create shared solutions for urban biodiversity.
The partners will also develop a training methodology and train themselves to facilitate local co-creation efforts, subsequently implementing and testing these methodologies and the guide through six local case projects.
Activities:
- Conducting a state-of-the-art analysis and local mapping
- Developing a teaching methodology on facilitating co-creation and conducting a train-the-trainer workshop
- Creating a guide on local co-creation for urban biodiversity and promoting its use
- Implementing the teaching methodology and guide through six local case projects
- Facilitating in-person and virtual exchanges between the different case projects
- Evaluating the project to assess the relevance and impact of the developed outputs and activities.
Results:
- Capacity building among professionals and volunteers in the public, private, and civil society sectors, enabling them to co-create solutions for urban biodiversity,
- The creation of a “Guide on local co-creation for urban biodiversity”,
- Valuable insights into the factors driving local co-creation,
- The development of a “Teaching methodology” for local trainers and educators to promote the facilitation of local co-creation as a learning process.
