First nesting on industrial riverside structures in the 1960s, these seabirds now inhabit various urban sites, including the Tyne Bridge and Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art (BALTIC). While cherished by many, their presence has sparked conflicts over noise and waste, leading to deterrent measures. Employing a <em>&#8220;more than human&#8221;<\/em> approach, the research combines ethnographic study, GIS, and machine learning to map kittiwake habitats and interactions. It aims to reimagine urban planning practices that support biodiversity, fostering more inclusive urban ecologies and sustainable coexistence.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-800609e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\"

It draws extensively on data science and social science research methods, including participation and co-design with the local stakeholders (residents, artists, ornithologists, architects, urban designers\/planners, NGOs and council representatives, etc).<\/p><p>Through participatory sessions, we aim to involve diverse participants in collaboration and co-creation. Together, we will explore how inclusive strategies and participatory methods can be integrated into urban ecological planning and nature-based solutions. This approach seeks to improve urban planning, governance, and policies to better address socio-ecological complexity.<\/p><p>We warmly invite you to get involved! Join our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/research.northumbria.ac.uk\/nue\/events\/\">events<\/a><\/strong>, respond to <a href=\"https:\/\/research.northumbria.ac.uk\/nue\/survey\/\"><strong>public surveys<\/strong><\/a>, participate in the urban survey, and collaborate with local communities in co-design initiatives.
