Green or Grey Pandemic Recovery? Revealing the Blue–Green Infrastructure Influences in Aotearoa-New Zealand’s “shovel Ready” Covid-19 Response
Urban policy and research(2022)
摘要
This paper analyses Aotearoa-New Zealand's "shovel-ready fund" to assess if, and how, blue-green infrastructure systems were present in bids from its largest city regions. Findings indicate a greater prevalence in areas with existing spatial plans, and while there was some consideration of climate resilience, there was no real acknowledgement of the pandemic or human health. More positively, there was some evidence of unique indigenous influences that have potential to develop more inclusive and holistic blue-green infrastructure initiatives. The overall response, however, demonstrates a disjointed approach to blue-green infrastructure-related projects, and a missed opportunity for a more transformative response to the climate crisis and human health emergencies.
