Guidebook for pollinator-friendly cities

This guidebook supports the EU Pollinators Initiative, adopted by the Commission in 2018 as the first-ever EU coordinated action on pollinators. The guidance contributes to Action 6, which aims to improve pollinator habitats in urban areas and the wider landscape. Cities and towns can be a major refuge for many insect pollinators, providing foraging and nesting sites, larval food plants and nectar that may be less available on intensively managed farmland. Local authorities (including politicians and policy makers) and local authority practitioners (planners, landscape architects, land managers, contractors, developers and gardeners) are well equipped to drive forward wild pollinator conservation.
