National programme for the greening of public spaces

The government will be developing a new model for the design of public spaces and housing to integrate more green spaces into our towns and cities. This model will be made available to local authorities and the private sector. A programme for greening public spaces will be drawn up, and other measures to enhance biodiversity will be implemented. The government will study the extent to which artificial public surfaces can be unsealed.

Greening public spaces

The government will launch a programme to green public spaces in order to enhance biodiversity, increase the resilience of localities to climate change and improve the well-being of citizens.

As far as possible, all public buildings and squares will be equipped with appropriate vegetation, whether on the roof, balconies, facades or ground. In addition, local authorities will be encouraged to implement measures aimed at enhancing biodiversity, such as greening public spaces and residential areas. To this end, the government will review the Nature Pact with the communes and adapt it if necessary.
