Abstract:
New York State (NYS) has set strict greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets across all sectors of its economy, including the heating sector. This study examines the financial value and environmental impacts of the residential space heating sector in NYS under different GHG abatement options by comparing the existing natural gas heating pathway with three potential GHG abatement pathways: renewable natural gas (RNG), hydrogen blended into RNG, and air-source heat pumps (ASHPs). These pathways are analyzed via a comparative net present value (NPV) framework from 2022 to 2042 with the emission reduction represented as a revenue stream that serves as a function of the social cost of GHGs. The investment timing of each of these pathways is also accounted for to reflect the pathways’ varying deployment timelines. The ASHP pathway with a 10% financial discount rate and a 2% social cost of the GHG discount rate achieves the lowest NPV. The RNG pathway achieves the highest NPV. A sensitivity analysis determines the impact of key factors on the NPV results. This study aims to inform policymakers, homeowners, and stakeholders of the potential benefits and costs of each of the four pathways to aid them in their decision-making process.

Abstract:
Residential green space is among the most accessible types of urban green spaces and may help maintain mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is insufficiently understood how residents use residential green space for exercise during the epidemic. The pathways between residential green space and mental health also merit further exploration. Therefore, we conducted an online study among Chinese residents in December 2021 to capture data on engagement with urban green space for green exercise, the frequency of green exercise, perceived pollution in green space, perceptions of residential green space, social cohesion, depression, and anxiety. Among the 1208 respondents who engaged in green exercise last month, 967 (80%) reported that green exercise primarily occurred in residential neighborhoods. The rest (20%) reported that green exercise occurred in more distant urban green spaces. The most common reasons that respondents sought green exercise in urban green spaces were better air and environmental qualities. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was then employed to explore the pathways between the perceived greenness of residential neighborhoods and mental health among respondents who used residential green space for exercise. The final model suggested that residential green space was negatively associated with anxiety (β = −0.30, p = 0.001) and depression (β = −0.33, p < 0.001), mainly through indirect pathways. Perceived pollution and social cohesion were the two mediators that contributed to most of the indirect effects. Perceived pollution was also indirectly associated with green exercise through less social cohesion (β = −0.04, p = 0.010). These findings suggest a potential framework to understand the mental health benefits of residential green space and its accompanying pathways during the COVID-19 era.

Abstract:
Owing to stricter building energy requirements, future buildings will be characterized by low base loads and occasional high peaks. However, future building areas will still contain existing and historical buildings with high energy demand. Meanwhile, there is a requirement that future building areas should obtain energy from renewable energy sources, while existing buildings need to be transited to renewables. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop an approach for modelling energy pathways for future Norwegian residential building areas by analyzing different energy supply systems. Several calculation methods were combined: building simulation, energy supply technology simulation, heat demand aggregation, and data post-processing. The results showed that the energy pathways would be very dependent on CO2-factors for energy sources, and it is hard to predict accurate CO2-factors. An increasing housing stock development would slightly increase the CO2 emissions towards 2050, although the new buildings used much less energy and the existing buildings underwent renovation. A constant housing stock would yield a 22–27% reduction of CO2 emissions by 2050. This showed that implementing stricter building codes had a lower impact on the total CO2 emissions than CO2-factors and energy technologies. The focus should lie on energy supply systems.

Abstract:
Residential green spaces, arguably the most accessible type of urban green space, may have lasting impacts on children and even change their lives later in adulthood. However, the potential pathways from childhood residential green space to adulthood mental wellbeing are not well understood. Therefore, we conducted a questionnaire survey among Chinese adults (N = 770) in September 2021 to capture data on subjective measures of residential green space and nature contact during childhood, and nature connectedness, nature contact, and mental wellbeing during adulthood. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to examine theoretical pathways between childhood residential green space and adult mental wellbeing. The results suggest that childhood residential green space positively predicts childhood nature contact and also has direct and indirect positive impacts on nature contact, nature connectedness, and mental wellbeing during adulthood. These findings advance understanding of the long-term impacts of childhood residential green space. Policymakers are advised to prioritize residential greening as well as other recreational facilities for children when planning health-promoting environments in urban spaces. Due to limitations in our study design, we also advise future studies to re-examine and extend the framework documented here.

Abstract:
An energy transition is currently taking place in many European countries. Existing studies comparing countries’ energy transition pathways are limited in scope and lack a strong theoretical foundation. This thesis addresses the lack of theoretical framework-based approaches by applying a sectoral analysis framework, identifying the main factors facilitating or hindering the sustainable energy transition in several countries, and the significant differences between them.The research focused on four countries; the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany and the United Kingdom and was limited to the residential sector of the built environment. It included the three dominant housing types: social rental; private rental; and homeownership. Data was clustered along the four dimensions of the sectoral analysis framework, identifying: (1) actors, interactions & networks; (2) the institutional or legal framework; (3) the technological framework; and (4) market demand. The same process was repeated for each of the countries, forming a detailed overview about their chosen energy transition pathways. A number of interviews were conducted to gain further insight into country-specific factors.With respect to actors, interactions and networks, this study has found that strong ties and cooperation between ministries and departments is an important factor facilitating policy success, with departmental fragmentation or competition posing a significant barrier. In terms of the institutional framework policy stability, clear targets and long-term policy framework are all factors for policy success. Conversely, frequent changes to existing policies, non-binding goals and the absence of a long-term framework are all seen as barriers for a sustainable energy transition. Looking at the technological regime, this study found countries with active support for renewable energy technologies have a higher share of renewable energy than countries where the choice of technologies is largely market-based. Past technological choices and existing energy-infrastructure were found to influence transition pathways and can be both a positive or negative factor. Lastly, with respect to market demand, the existence of a standardised housing stock was found to be a potentially significant factor for the upscaling of innovative initiatives. The existence of a large and fragmented (private) rental sector and high interest rates on financing products were found to be further barriers for the energy transition in the residential sector.This thesis has identified obstacles matching those in previous studies and introduced a number of factors facilitating policy success. It has made a first step in overcoming the lack in theoretical framework-based approaches in energy transition analysis future studies can build on.

Abstract:
Partant du constat partagé par les élus et les techniciens qu’il est de plus en plus difficile de se loger dans la métropole bordelaise, la thèse s’intéresse aux stratégies résidentielles et aux parcours résidentiels dans la métropole bordelaise et en Gironde. En effet, le contexte immobilier particulièrement tendu et les prix élevés à l’achat et à la location conditionnent les modalités d’entrée sur les marchés du logement, locatif comme à la propriété, de s’y maintenir, de déménager. Ainsi, derrière la question de l’offre et des prix immobiliers à l’achat et à la location, l’enjeu majeur de la crise contemporaine du logement réside dans la fluidité des parcours résidentiels. Dans un positionnement de recherche-action, l’objectif est de proposer une description fine des parcours résidentiels et de leurs points de blocage pour rendre compte des enjeux qui se posent aujourd’hui aux politiques publiques. Les méthodes mobilisées visent à décrire les stratégies, d’une part, et les parcours résidentiels, d’autre part. Partant d’une caractérisation générale des flux à partir des données Fidéli, une enquête par questionnaire (N=812), portant sur des ménages ayant récemment déménagé et vivant en Gironde à l’issue du déménagement, a fait l’objet d’un redressement et d’un traitement statistique. Des entretiens complètent l’analyse quantitative afin de comprendre plus finement les choix et les stratégies résidentielles. Mis en perspective avec les travaux existants, ces entretiens permettent de définir des idéaux types de trajectoires résidentielles, précisés par les résultats de l’analyse multivariée de l’enquête par questionnaire. Les résultats mettent en évidence une typologie des parcours résidentiels en Gironde en 6 catégories : les « accédants en métropole », les « néo-Bordelais locataires », les « jeunes bénéficiant d’aides et/ ou d’un patrimoine familial » et qui déménagent sans difficulté dans le périurbain, les « retraités heureux », les « professions intermédiaires en milieu de cycle de vie entravées dans la métropole » et enfin, les « ouvriers et employés entravés en Gironde ».Ainsi, l’analyse croisée des idéaux types des trajectoires résidentielles et de la typologie des parcours résidentiels souligne que le cycle de vie ne permet pas à lui seul d’expliquer les parcours résidentiels des ménages. Les parcours résidentiels sont également socialement sélectifs. Les catégories aisées accèdent plus facilement à la propriété et a fortiori, à la location. À l’inverse, les classes les plus précaires sont exclues de l’accession à la propriété, parfois même dans le périurbain, alors que l’accession à la propriété demeure centrale dans la demande résidentielle. De plus, les inégalités patrimoniales, y compris au sein de la même étape du cycle de vie, opèrent des distinctions importantes dans la fluidité des parcours résidentiels. Enfin, les aspirations résidentielles propres à chaque parcours de vie influencent aussi les parcours résidentiels. À moment dans le cycle de vie similaire et catégorie professionnelle équivalent, les trajectoires de vie mènent à des choix et à des arrangements différents.Au regard de ces résultats, les politiques publiques en faveur de la fluidité des parcours résidentiels ne peuvent se résumer à des politiques de l’habitat. Elles doivent intégrer des politiques sociales, économiques et de transports afin de permettre un accès à un logement décent, à toutes les étapes de la vie. Les parcours résidentiels sont finalement un catalyseur des enjeux de la ville de demain
Based on the observation shared by local representatives and experts that it has become increasingly difficult to find accommodation in the Bordeaux metropolis, this dissertation explores housing strategies and trajectories within the Bordeaux metropolitan area and in the department of Gironde. Indeed, the tight real estate market as well as high purchasing and renting prices determine how people access, remain and move within the housing market, both for renting and home ownership. Therefore, beyond the matters of supply and of purchasing and renting prices, the main issue underlying the current housing market crisis lies in the fluidity of residential trajectories. In an action-research perspective, the goal is then to offer a more detailed description of housing trajectories and their obstacles to document the challenges facing public policies today. The methods used aim at describing on the one hand the strategies and on the other the housing trajectories. Starting from an overall characterization of flows based on Fidéli data, a survey conducted among households having recently moved and living in Gironde was adjusted and statistically analyzed. In order to better understand choices and housing strategies, interviews were carried out to supplement the quantitative analysis. From these interviews, which were compared with existing research, ideal types of housing trajectories could be defined, and made more precise by the results drawn from the survey’s multivariate analysis. The results reveal a typology of residential trajectories in Gironde falling into 6 groups : the “city homebuyers”, the “tenants newly arrived in Bordeaux”, the “young people benefitting from state aid and/or family resources" and who easily move to the suburban area, the “happy retirees”, the “mid-life individuals with intermediate occupations hindered in the metropolis” and finally, the “workers and employees hindered in Gironde”.Thus, the cross-analysis of housing trajectories’ ideal types and of housing trajectories’ typology shows that the life cycle alone does not explain the households’ residential trajectories. These are also socially selective. The wealthiest groups access home ownership more easily and renting even more so. On the contrary, the poorest groups are excluded from ownership, sometimes even in the suburban areas, even though becoming a homeowner remains a core residential demand. Moreover, inequalities in terms of resources, including for people at the same stage of the life cycle, also create important discrepancies in the fluidity of residential trajectories. Lastly, residential aspirations, that are unique to each life course, also influence housing trajectories. At comparable occupation and stage of life, individual life trajectories lead to different arrangements and choices.In light of these results, it becomes clear that public policies striving for fluidity in residential trajectories cannot merely be reduced to housing policies. They have to include social, economic and transport policies to enable affordable housing at every stage of life. In the end, residential trajectories encapsulate the challenges facing the city of tomorrow

Abstract:
Air conditioning is not just a matter of individual comfort in many tropical countries but a precondition of public health, work productivity and economic growth. Residential cooling is energy-intensive, raising profound concern to exacerbate global warming and in turn the need for more residential cooling as the prevalence of air conditioners especially in Africa is expected to skyrocket in the future. This work develops a pathway to sustainable residential cooling for West African cities to address this challenge. As meaningful data are basically non-existent, electricity end use monitoring and survey of 60 households in Tema city is conducted. This is the first measurement study of residential electricity end use in Ghana. A detailed building energy model, representative in terms of archetype and cooling demand, is developed based on and calibrated with the collected data. The validated model is used for dynamic energy simulation to study the impact of key determinants on cooling energy demand and identify specific reduction measures. Dynamic energy simulation of the cooling schedule is used to demonstrate the potential for rooftop solar photovoltaic to meet this energy demand if operated in a smart way. The work is complemented by policy recommendations to incentivize renewable energy deployment and an economic assessment of the various identified demand reduction measures and solar photovoltaic systems. To walk this pathway successfully and turn sustainable residential cooling for West African cities into reality, it is vital to have barriers for implementation removed and create win-win situations for cooperation of stakeholders across the electrical energy system.

Abstract:
The chapter begins by reviewing the existing evidence base for services for personality disordered offenders within secure settings, outlining approaches used both in the UK and internationally. The chapter goes on to describe the implementation of the Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) strategy in secure services, setting out the commissioning context and the focus on social environments, including Psychologically Informed Planned Environments (PIPEs) and Enabling Environments. It reviews the approach chosen by the London Pathways Partnership in terms of service model (residential, day programme, and outreach) and the intensity of the interventions used. The delivery of the services is then described in detail, including the development phase; referrals and assessment; intervention; and pathway progression. The chapter reviews the progress of the services over the first four years, including what worked and what didn’t, and concludes with an outline of evaluations of the services and proposals for future developments.

Abstract:
AbstractRoughly 97% of the European Union (EU) building stock is not considered energy efficient, and 75–85% of it will still be in use in 2050 (Artola et al., Boosting building renovation: What potential and value for Europe? 2016). Residential buildings account for around two thirds of final energy consumption in European buildings. The rate at which new buildings either replace the old stock or expand the total stock is about 1% per year. Similarly, the current renovation rate of existing buildings in the EU is about 1–2% of the building stock renovated each year. Renovation strategies on building levels need to be derived from a combination of energy efficiency upgrades to buildings and the use of renewable energy to decarbonize the energy supply, on a district or city scale. IEA EBC Annex 75 subtask D2 focuses on promoting cost-effective building renovation at district level combining energy efficiency and renewable energy systems, by focusing on the business models that can make implementation possible. This paper intends to provide an overview of the business model archetypes that can support the development of district demand and/or supply of energy-efficient building renovations and/or renewable energy solutions by targeting various types of stakeholders. It builds upon existing literature to gain insights into the current distributed energy business model landscape. Further, implementation strategies are identified that focus on a holistic evaluation of the expected energy and CO2 performance of the site and optimized infrastructure investment pathways.

Abstract:
AbstractCaring for people following a fragility fracture is often a complex, medium- to long-term undertaking with several phases from acute care through to rehabilitation and secondary fracture prevention. Fragility fractures can have a substantial impact on older peoples’ longer term function, place of residence and quality of life, sometimes leading to long-term residential or end-of-life care.Health professionals caring for patients following fragility fracture are required to provide evidence-based care and coordinate interdisciplinary care. Not all ‘care’ is provided by those professionals who are identified as nurses, and in the future the boundaries of care-giving roles are likely to be more flexible. For these reasons, this book, although focused on nursing (because a significant amount of fragility facture/orthogeriatric care is provided by them), aims to broaden its relevance to all healthcare professionals who provide care in any part of the world.Avoiding the devastating impacts of fragility fractures drives the need to prevent fractures through secondary fracture prevention. This prevention care is lifelong and usually delivered and monitored by a primary care team including general practitioners, nurses, physiotherapists and other specialist practitioners. The pathway of care is, therefore, dynamic and involves the collaboration of many individuals and agencies.Fragility fractures are important indicators that there may be undiagnosed osteoporosis that requires treatment to prevent further fractures. If left untreated, osteoporosis and associated bone fragility can, ultimately, lead to significant injuries such as hip or femoral fractures, which will require hospital admission and surgery, and severely threaten an individual’s health and well-being. This presents significant challenges for clinical teams in every care setting.The aim of this chapter is to introduce the reader to orthogeriatric and fragility fracture care and to both familiarise them with the multiple topics covered in this book and support the interdisciplinary care team in achieving optimal recovery of independent function and quality of life, with no further fractures for all people with fragility fractures.

Abstract:
This study analyzed potential low-carbon pathways to achieve net-zero residential buildings in India. With the building sector contributing to 33% of global energy-related CO2 emissions, decarbonizing it is crucial for a net-zero economy. The study used a system dynamics model—Sustainable Alternative Future for India—to capture sectoral interlinkages and explore the implications of meeting India's development goals related to energy, resources, materials, and emissions. Three scenarios were developed, constituting interventions from the building, power, and material industry sectors. The business-as-usual scenario assumes that existing policies will persist, whereas the other two decarbonization scenarios consider different levels of realistic interventions, such as electrification and behavioural shifts. The study discusses the residential cooling demand and transition cost to high-efficiency appliances. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of considering sectoral interlinkages and resource constraints in achieving net-zero energy residential buildings.

Abstract:
Abstract The residential sector in Saudi Arabia consumes more than half of the total electricity generated, with room air conditioners being among the most significant contributors. The current work aims to estimate the current and future energy savings and CO2 emission reductions possible under three different scenarios: Business as Usual (BAU), Continuous Improvement Scenario (CIS), and Accelerated Improvement Scenario (AIS) up to 2030. The BAU scenario presents the energy consumption and CO2 emissions assuming the current Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 11.8 BTU/Wh is maintained till 2030. CIS takes into account an improvement of 5% in EER of new air conditioner (AC) stock every 2 or 5 years, and AIS considers an improvement of 10% in EER of new ACs every 2 or 5 years. Additionally, the energy savings and CO2 emission reductions possible through varying penetration levels of newly introduced refrigerant (R32) have been estimated for all three scenarios with 2 year intervals. The BAU scenario is promising resulting in energy savings of up to 21.4 TWh in 2030 compared to 2020 energy consumption figures. However, implementing AIS with 2 year intervention intervals leads to significant additional energy savings of 12.7 TWh by 2030 as compared to BAU scenario. Even implementing CIS with 2 year intervention intervals leads to additional energy savings exceeding 3 TWh by 2030. The introduction of the new refrigerant (R32) leads to modest cumulative energy savings of 2.5 TWh in the best-case scenario and suggests that the policy focus can be directed towards increasing the EER of residential AC systems.

Abstract:
Abstract The development of highly compact and energy-efficient systems is critical for world energy security and technology leadership. Due to the abundance of natural gas, the natural gas fueled distributed energy systems that lower the energy consumption and utility costs would be ideal in the U.S. as well as worldwide markets. To meet these objectives, researchers from Enginuity Power Systems (EPS) are currently working on the development of an ultra-efficient Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system for residential and commercial applications. These CHP systems generate electricity at the point of use while also meeting the space and water heating demands. Furthermore, a single CHP system replaces the conventional electricity generator, space, and water heating systems in residential and commercial applications. The main technical objective of this research article is the demonstration of the fundamental design and performance characteristics of an EPS’s 6 kW–10 kW CHP system intended for residential applications. The proposed residential system utilized a mirror-balanced, patented, inwardly opposed piston, four-stroke internal combustion engine as a prime mover. This novel four-stroke opposed piston design resolved the scavenging, cooling, and lubrication issues faced by the conventional opposed designs in the market while also maintaining the power density, balancing, and performance benefits. Initially, a series of experiments were conducted on the proposed system for different speeds and throttle openings. Later, the combustion, performance, and quantified energy loss pathways were presented at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) conditions to demonstrate the performance benefits of the proposed system. Finally, a performance-oriented framework was developed for the proposed CHP system for future efforts.

Abstract:
Abstract Much emphasis is placed on the role of Net Zero Communities (NZCs) in achieving a sustainable future. Systems research on the topic, including the application of bio-inspired techniques already used on other human networks, is currently hindered by the lack of case studies documenting the structure and quantity of energy, water, and waste flows within realistic NZCs. This work proposes and preliminarily tests a method of generating a database of hypothetical-realistic NZCs by expanding the system boundaries for well-documented Eco-industrial Park (EIP) networks. The expansion includes residential and commercial actors from the community surrounding the EIP. Past studies using Ecological Network Analysis (ENA) to improve the environmental and economic performance of these EIPs have resulted in a quantitative database of case studies. Combining these industrial hubs to nearby residential, commercial, agricultural, etc. actors can generate potential multi-use networks on which similar design work can be conducted. Three EIP to NZC cases are generated and analyzed focusing on their system structure. Cyclicity, an ENA metric used to quantify the presence and complexity of cyclic pathways in a network, has been shown to promote the efficient use of resources in both biological and human networks. Cyclicity values for the original EIP networks, the community additions, and the potential NZC case studies reveals that there are many meaningful interactions that occur between actors that are only visible once the system boundaries are expanded to the NZC level. This offers a glimpse into the potential benefits of approaching the NZ problem, and sustainable living more generally, on a system scale — an analysis that will be further enabled by the generation of an NZC database initiated by this work.

Abstract:
As the global community grapples with the imperative of transitioning to clean energy sources, policymakers, utilities, and other stakeholders face the challenge of navigating a complex landscape of interrelated factors. The situation necessitates a comprehensive examination of the various factors, and the interaction of those factors, which shape the clean energy transition. This paper presents a quantitative approach to better understand clean energy transition, to uncover the critical pathways and variables at play. Drawing upon our experience in data analytics and computational modeling, this research delves into the intricate web of influences that impact the adoption and diffusion of clean energy technologies. We collect data from multiple sources, including Residential Energy Consumption Survey, and Pew’s American Trends Survey to drive insights. Policy levels including Inflation Reduction Act are analyzed, and simulations are conducted to test different scenario. Preliminary result indicates recipient of energy assistance policy for low-income households significantly predicts energy consumption, and solar panel installations. Viewing the transition to clean energy as part of an interconnected system, the paper offers insights into how interactions between key factors correlates with the adoption of clean energy, ultimately shedding light on the most effective policy strategies. The findings aim to provide policymakers, utilities, stakeholders, and researchers with a comprehensive understanding of the quantitative aspects of clean energy transition, facilitating informed decision-making in the pursuit of a sustainable energy future.

Abstract:
As wind turbines are increasingly being adopted for meeting growing energy needs, their implementation for personal home use in the near future is imminent. There are very few studies conducted on these small-scale turbines in the one to two meter diameter range because the power generated at this scale is not sufficient to justify the cost of installation and maintenance. The problem is further complicated by the fact that these turbines are normally mounted at low altitudes and thus there is necessity to have the optimum operating regime in the wind speed range of 3–10 mph (1.34–4.47 m/s). This study analyzes the turbine performance with a diffuser at these dimensions and demonstrates the pathway that can meet these challenges. The design was modeled using commercial computational fluid dynamics code. Two-dimensional modeling using actuator disk theory was used to optimize the diffuser design. A statistical study was then conducted to reduce the computational time by selecting a descriptive set of models to test and characterize the effect of prominent parameters rather than evaluating all the possible combinations of input parameters. Individual dimensions were incorporated into JMP software and randomized to design the experiment. The results of the JMP analysis are discussed in this paper. Consistent with the literature, a long outlet section (one to three times the length of the diameter) coupled with a sharp angled inlet was found to provide the highest amplification for a wind turbine diffuser.

Abstract:
Sexual assault and sexual harassment (SASH) remain pressing issues on university campuses, making it imperative for higher education institutions to develop prevention strategies. Within this context, education plays a pivotal role in addressing the underlying factors contributing to SASH, while also providing crucial information about care and support pathways for survivors. This paper, authored by practitioners from the Australian National University’s (ANU) Respectful Relationships Unit (RRU), reflects on the conceptualisation, implementation, and evaluation of a large-scale respect and consent education program. Tailored to ANU's context, the program utilised a multi-modal approach including an online module, face-to-face workshops, and residential hall pilots. Challenges, such as engagement and sustainability, were addressed through collaborative partnerships and continuous improvement efforts. Evaluation, conducted in collaboration with social scientists from the ANU Centre for Social Research and Methods (CSRM), provided insights for refinement and future directions. ANU's ongoing commitment to community engagement, innovation, equity, and evaluation underscores its dedication to fostering safer and more inclusive campus environments. Through collaboration and a shared commitment to prevention, ANU aims to make meaningful progress towards a campus free of sexual harm.

Abstract:
This report explores the potential of Urban Agriculture (UA) to enhance food security, improve resource efficiency, and promote smart, resilient, and circular cities. The discussion is framed within the scope of the Horizon 2020 project ‘Sino-European Innovative Green and Smart Cities’ (SiEUGreen) which explored different pathways to turn waste into resources for growing food in cities through the combination of different technologies. These technologies were tested in five showcases: Campus Ås, in Ås, Norway; World Gardens and Brabrand Fællesgartneriet community gardens in Aarhus, Denmark; Turunçlu greenhouse in Atakya, Turkey; Sanyuan Farm, in Beijing, and Futiancangjun residential area in Changsha, China. The insights and knowledge gained with these showcases were the basis to discuss the barriers and drivers of UA in the transition to more sustainable and resilient circular cities, across five aspects (1) environmental, (2) technological, (3) economic, (4) social and cultural and (5) regulatory and institutional issues. The results suggest that city food provision and UA systems can be designed considering circular economy regenerative cycles, but it is important to promote local research that can highlight policy solutions to address context-related barriers and limitations. Among the main lessons learned across the different aspects, we highlight: - The need for more evidence-based research, clear monitoring tools and evaluation/assessment of the different UA typologies and their impact on the environment, society and economy; - The implementation of innovative technological developments that support and promote UA for reduce; reuse, recycle/recover resources require more experimentation, large-scale tests and validation both concerning their efficiency, positive environmental impacts, as well as economic viability; - The need for high investments, difficulties accessing financial support, underdeveloped business case for circular resource models, and limited recognition of the positive and indirect economic, environmental benefits of UA are among the main barriers that limit the uptake of agriculture in cities; - Despite the significant role UA can play in advancing a circular economy (e.g., by supporting sustainable local food systems, promoting community resilience and reducing waste), behaviour and cultural barriers were found to have a deep impact when fostering a closed-loop approach to UA, especially concerning overcoming prejudice against waste as a resource, - Local governance and public policy play a central role in framing and supporting UA (e.g., incentives, funding, regulatory frameworks) as a pathway that enables close loops in cities.
