doi:10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb2021-1210

Abstract

Abstract:

The paper aims to reveal the mechanism and influencing factors of community garden health benefits, promote people’s health, and activate the vitality of cities. Based on CNKI and Web of Science (WoS) literature database, research on the health benefits of community gardens at home and abroad from 2000 to 2021 was analyzed. The results showed that: (1) during 2000-2021, the research at home and abroad showed a significant growth trend, most of the foreign research was oriented towards food health development and paid more attention to quantitative and empirical research on human settlements and health; domestic research was mostly practical application oriented, carrying out site construction mainly in planning and design and horticultural activities; (2) the mechanism and influencing factors of community garden health benefits were the key points of the research at home and abroad, research on the mechanism of action focused on relieving mental pressure, enhancing physical efficiency, promoting social interaction and so on, while that on the major influencing factors focused on community garden construction characteristics, maintenance of biological diversity, vegetation types and management; (3) multidisciplinary ecological governance and green development for building low-carbon healthy living environment are hot research fields in the future.

Key words: community garden, health benefits, mechanism of action, influencing factor, research progress
