The workshop will begin with a brief discussion about the context. Our objective is to (1) reflect together on what has been already achieved in urban ecological research, and to (2) consider what conclusions can be provided for municipalities to help them conserve urban nature and biodiversity.

We will also consider (3) how we can make more effective use of the considerable volume of data that has been generated by urban ecological research, from the earliest studies of the mid 20th century to recent work. Finally, we will consider (4) how data from urban ecological research can be used in conceptual and theoretical research. We will then divide into a number of small groups to work separately on the topics outlined above. We hope that the workshop will be attended by people from a diverse range of backgrounds, both scientists and practitioners, encompassing diverse research roles and interests and also municipal representatives familiar with the research requirements of cities.
