Abstract
Urban green spaces play a crucial role in promoting biodiversity conservation within city environments. This study examines the impact of various green spaces in Cape Town, South Africa, on local flora and fauna. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research collected data through field surveys, remote sensing, and interviews with local stakeholders. Results indicate that strategically designed urban green spaces significantly enhance native biodiversity, providing critical habitats for various species. The findings suggest that urban planning should integrate biodiversity-friendly designs to support ecological sustainability in metropolitan areas.
