ILS-JOURNAL 02/26 – Gärtnern in der Stadt, mehr als nur Freizeitbeschäftigung
Gärtnern in der Stadt hat viele Gesichter – vom klassischen Schrebergarten bis hin zum Anbau auf dem Dach. Im ILS-JOURNAL 02/26 geht es im Titelthema um die ILS-Forschung zu urbanen Kleingärten als Baustein für nachhaltige Städte. Im Interview teilt Jens Woelki vom Amt für Stadterneuerung der Stadt Dortmund und Projektleiter von Querbeet Dortmund welche Erfahrungen er mit verschiedenen Formen des städtischen Gärtnerns gemacht hat und erzählt von sogenannten “Gartenlaboren”. Außerdem gibt es im Heft neues aus der Forschung, sowie Projektergebnisse zum Thema Mobilität und Entwicklung von Großwohnsiedlungen. Zum Heft
Sustainability goal literacy enables mission-oriented agrifood research
ILS researcher Thomas Weith, together with colleagues, has published an article in the journal “communications sustainability”. Research-driven innovations in agricultural and food systems can advance global sustainability goals, but their complexity requires them to be linked to clear transformation goals. Using a German research programme in the agriculture and food sector as an example, we demonstrate how such integration into transformation pathways can be achieved whilst simultaneously supporting mission-oriented research. https://doi.org/10.1038/s44458-026-00114-x.

ILS has been working on a Horizon Europe funded project, GreenME that aims to identify ways in which effective nature-based therapy and a broader green care framework can be scaled-up to improve adult mental health and wellbeing equity. One of the key topics in NECTAR2026 was “Health Impacts of Mobility Systems: Mental and physical health outcomes from (in)action”, thus it provided the excellent opportunity to showcase preliminary results from GreenME.
