We engage in participatory science and open science, as well as disseminate our results as broadly as possible, to bridge the gap between science and society. We regularly inform about our Impact activities and related outputs in this section of our website.
A recent study published by ICTA-UAB (LASEG & BCNUEJ) researchers in the scientific journal “Landscape and Urban Planning” examines the amount and typology of urban nature within and around 324 primary schools of Barcelona from an equity perspective. Results show that school-based exposure and access to urban nature is markedly unequal across the Catalan capital.

Public green spaces provide essential benefits for people' health and well-being while triggering environmental attachment and stewardship, eventually resulting in a positive impact on the ecosystem as a whole. However, public green spaces benefits are usually unequally distributed across society. This study aims to understand the perceived benefits people obtain from public green spaces and assess their distribution, including spatial and temporal patterns of use.
Call for Data Scientist to work in the LICCI project for 18 months Contract duration: April 2021- September 2022
We are looking for an experienced postdoctoral researcher to lead the development and calculus of a Rural Vulnerability Index in rural Spain.
Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) initiatives often aim to incentivize the joint adoption of forest protection and sustainable management practices. This research in Chiapas, Mexico, shows the limits of PES when parachuted into a context of uneven land tenure, weak collective action and contested leaderships.
