A Estrutura Verde Urbana constitui um sistema de promoção dos elementos naturais nas paisagens urbanas, visando a sustentabilidade e qualidade de vida. Considerada uma estratégia fundamental de planeamento urbano, é implementada há já bastante tempo, tendo acompanhado o desenvolvimento das cidades, em resposta aos constantes desafios trazidos pela evolução das sociedades e culturas.
Por todo o mundo, e ao longo da história, surgem diversos modelos de Estrutura Verde Urbana que, embora com distintas designações, conformações e objetivos, dependendo de cada paisagem urbana, tiveram em comum uma génese
e, embora indiretamente, funcionalidades convergentes.
Apresentam-se, aqui, os modelos mais relevantes de Estrutura Verde Urbana, surgidos em paralelo com a evolução
das cidades, ajudando a compreender a história da relação do homem com o natural, mas também servindo de inspiração para novas estratégias de articulação dos elementos
naturais com as necessidades humanas, face aos novos e constantes desafios de sustentabilidade emergentes.
The Urban Green Structure is a system of promotion of the natural elements in urban landscapes, aiming sustainability and quality of life. Considered as a key strategy for urban planning, it has been implemented for a long time, following the cities development, in response to the challenges posed by the societies and cultures evolution. Throughout the world and over the course of history, several models of Urban Green Structure arise, with different names, conformations and objectives, depending on each urban landscape, but having in common a genesis and, although indirectly, convergent functionalities. The most relevant models of Green Urban Structure are presented here. They emerged in parallel with the evolution of cities, helping to understand the history of man’s relationship with nature, but also inspiring new strategies for articulation of natural elements with human needs, in response to the new and ongoing challenges of sustainability that arise.
