KNOWLEDGE, AWARENESS & TRAINING
知識、意識、人材養成

Learning about city greenery happens in academic settings and by informal training (such as Master Gardeners programs). Understanding about the attitudes and results of educational efforts can make such programs more effective. It is also valuable to assess the knowledge and awareness of the public about greening issues. For example, outdoor accessibility by the disabled is an important concern.

都市緑化についての講座が学術施設やその他の非公式講座（マスターガーデナープログラムのような）で行われています。このような教育活動の成果やについて理解することは、このような講座プログラムをさらに有効なものにしていきます。一般市民の緑化に関する知識や意識を評価することも価値あることです。たとえば、屋外で障害者の移動しやすさは、重要な問題です。
