dc.description.abstractThis dissertation provides an examination of the practice of grassroots green roof project in Shenzhen, China. The research was primarily informed by the rapid growth, development, and expansion of the urban centers, specifically cities, which has resulted in the scarcity of the green infrastructures within these regions. Therefore the study aims at examining the practice of grassroots green roofing projects in enhancing resilient and healthy climate within urban settlements. From the findings of the study, there are various challenges that impact the development of green roofing project within the context of sponge city which includes, the complexity of technologies required for the implementation of the initiative, lack of linkage mechanisms in distinct sector, unsatisfactory conditions within the urban villages buildings, inadequate funding to facilitate the implementation of the projects and the inadequacy of understanding by the public with respect to the construction and renovation of the sponge city initiatives. On the other hand, the opportunities presented by these initiatives involve the creation of employment, development of community-based organizations, and the reduction of environmental pollution that, in turn, enhances a resilient and healthy climate. Based on the findings, the study recommends that the residential building in Shenzhen should have an excellent public opinion foundation, an increase of funding towards this type of project, and the creation of awareness regarding the design concept in relation to sponge city.en_US
