Inclusive Planning of Urban Nature

Allegra Newman


    Abstract

 Abstract
 References
 
As North American cities become increasingly diverse, urban ecological restoration needs to adopt a culturally inclusive framework. Using a review of urban ecological restoration literature, inclusive planning literature, and primary research collected from research in the City of Toronto, I examine ecological restoration efforts and offer recommendations for how urban ecological restoration can become responsive to the increasing racial diversity in North American cities.

Keywords: ethnic diversity, inclusion, planning, Toronto, urban ecological restoration
