Green space management charter

With a view to pooling resources, Plante et Cité, an association bringing together all those involved in nature engineering in cities, is launching a national inventory of charters binding cities and companies to ensure compliance with environmental and sustainable policies by the different service providers.

The purpose is to draw up a support methodology and an adaptable "standard" charter, for cities that would like to undertake a similar initiative.

This is because it is often difficult for local authorities to harmonise measures with all landscape and green space stakeholders who work for a city, without a concrete tool to refer to. The charters developed by some authorities are meant to be appended to specifications.

Note: Plante et cité is now recognised by:

the French Ministries of Agriculture and Ecology as a test partner for the 2018 Ecophyto plan which seeks to cut pesticide use by half.
Val'hor, the ornamental gardening joint-trade association, as a national technical centre for research and testing on green spaces
