Take part in Barcelona’s green spaces

Citizen participation is essential for maintaining and improving Barcelona’s green spaces. 

Every garden, park and green zone in the city not only provides a place for rest and relaxation but also contributes significantly to the quality of life in the city. Residents’ involvement is crucial to ensure that these spaces remain clean, safe and full of life.

Participation in maintenance or planting activities helps to create a healthier and more sustainable city. 

We can make Barcelona an example of coexistence with nature, a place where every person feels like part of a collective effort to preserve the natural environment. 

City residents’ contribution is essential to increase the green infrastructure, maintain biodiversity, lower the impact of climate change and guarantee that everyone can enjoy Barcelona’s green spaces.
