Urban nature is a sustainable way to improve the health of community members and increase their connection with nature. Stakeholder input improves the utilization and effectiveness of these installations. Growing Pathways aims to implement urban nature in five locations around Copenhagen via their Domes of Life project. Our goal was to make recommendations about how to implement the Domes of Life based on the characteristics of the people, partners, living non-humans, and landscapes in each location. We did this by interviewing partners and passersby and recording personal observations. The data was analyzed to develop characterizations. These helped generate recommendations for possible activities within and around each dome.
