DEPAVING Aix-Marseille: An interdisciplinary hub for the analysis of urban NBS

Résumé

In the context of adapting to the effects of climate change, French cities tend to promote the de-paving of surfaces and the greening of urban spaces to allow for rainwater infiltration, combatting heat islands, biodiversity loss, and anticipating the consequences of major weather events that current infrastructures might not withstand (such as floods, pollution, etc.). Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) can address both environmental challenges related to climate risks and improve living spaces by advocating for nature in urban areas. In Marseille, a pilot project for NBS in the city was launched under the European project CARDIMED. This project began in September 2023 and will run for a duration of 5 years, initially encompassing the university campuses of Saint-Charles (urban site), Saint-Jérôme (peri-urban site), and the Schuman site (Aix-en-Provence, medium-sized city). With the goal of producing evidence regarding the impact of these significant developments on users' experiences and their quality of life within the campuses and more broadly across the Aix-Marseille metropolitan area, the project will act as an interdisciplinary hub for research, teaching, and urban adaptation policies. Within environmental psychology the project proposes to (1) identify key indicators that describe the user experience and well-being in open spaces within these campuses; and (2) to measure these indicators before and after the de-paving work takes place. This work will be carried out through the development of a questionnaire targeting a representative sample, which will be administered to different users of the campuses affected by the works. This work will be complemented by physical analysis (humidity, temperature), health analysis of local animal populations, biological analysis of the soil, economical analysis (impact within and outside the campus). Overall the CARDIMED project will provide observations from a variety of disciplines to promote NBS in the Aix-Marseille metropole.
