Urban gardens boost pollinator access for city dwellers

University of Basel research shows underused street spaces support pollinators

University of Basel researchers note that nature-strip gardens—underused urban spaces—create accessible habitats for pollinators in city environments. This configuration makes pollinator services more available to residents without requiring new land. The finding advances SUSTENANCE by potentially strengthening food systems through natural pollination, while also supporting THE COMMONS via shared ecological resources and SECURITY through resilient urban ecosystems.
