Although urban allotment gardening dates back to the nineteenth century, it has recently undergone a renaissance of interest and popularity. This is the result of greater concern over urban greenspace, food security and quality of life. This book presents a comprehensive, research-based overview of the various features, benefits and values associated with urban allotment gardening in Europe.The book is based on a European COST Action project, which brings together researchers and practitioners from all over Europe for the first detailed exploration of the subject on a continent-wide scale. It assesses the policy, planning and design aspects, as well as the social and ecological benefits of urban allotment gardening. Through an examination of the wide range of different traditions and practices across Europe, it brings together the most recent research to discuss the latest evolutions of urban allotment gardening and to help raise awareness and fill knowledge gaps.The book provides a multidisciplinary perspective, including insights from horticulture and soil science, ecology, sociology, urban geography, landscape, planning and design. The themes are underpinned by case studies from a number of European countries which supply a wide range of examples to illustrate different key issues.

De planning van kindvriendelijke stedelijke ruimtes vormt vandaag een uitdagende interdisciplinaire opgave voor iedereen die ruimtelijk, pedagogisch of sociaal mee aan de toekomstige stad werkt. De betrokkenheid van kinderen en tieners in deze processen wordt meer dan ooit gezien als een voorwaarde om tot een leefbare en duurzame stedelijke omgeving te komen. Deze betrokkenheid beperkt zich niet tot de rol van informant en/of participant in een planningsproces, maar vraagt een openheid en opgave om kinderen en tieners als medeonderzoekers en -planners van de stad van morgen te erkennen.Deze KIDS-GIDS combineert sociale, pedagogische en ruimtelijke inzichten en reikt een set bruikbare tools aan die bijdragen tot een steviger burgerschapspositie van kinderen en jongeren in (kindvriendelijke) stedelijke plannings- en veranderingsprocessen. Deze tools werden ontwikkeld en uitgetest in de context van vier verschillende soorten stedelijke planningsprocessen: stadsvernieuwing, stadseducatie, stadsontwikkeling en stedelijke transitie. Ze helpen de positie van kinderen en tieners in de verschillende fasen van een planningsproces te versterken: kijken en onderzoeken, uitwisselen en ordenen, verbeelden en experimenteren, toetsen en selecteren, en tussenkomen en presenteren.
