There is a common belief that the scientific community is disconnected from civil society and the labour market, although the European Commission recently has started to invest in measures which enhance the collaboration between subjects belonging to the research and production world. Even in the sectors of Green Infrastructure (GI) and Urban Forestry (UF), further collaboration among stakeholders is needed – and therefore we want to better understand the actual background and needs of three categories of stakeholders involved in GI and UF: policy makers, private professionals and scientists.

The questionnaire concerns three subjects of investigation:

- scientific knowledge transfer (PART 2)
- collaboration between public administrations and research (PART 3A)
-      collaboration between public administrations and private professionals (PART 3B)
- training in Green Infrastructure and Urban Forestry (PART 4)

The questionnaire will take about 10 minutes to fill in. The information provided here will be treated as strictly confidential and stored in a private database at the Institute of Biometeorology (National Research Coucil) in Florence, Italy. Only statistics will be published without any reference to the personal and organisational details.
Your contribution will be useful for other stakeholders and to evaluate the current needs on Green Infrastructure and Urban Forestry.

Thank you in advance for your collaboration
