摘要 Pocket parks, defined as small-scale urban green spaces, have the potential to foster diverse ecological, cultural, social, and economic development in high-density cities. Under the dimension of spatial justice, pocket parks are acknowledged as a significant carrier for promoting the equitable distribution of green spaces and fostering social inclusion. The incorporation of appropriate green strategies and community participatory design methods can significantly enhance the sense of belonging and overall experience of local residents. This approach not only aligns the social values associated with pocket parks with the specific needs of the community but also fosters equitable citizen participation in both decision-making and design processes. This study proposes a comprehensive theoretical framework for the integration of pocket parks into green infrastructure networks. It aims to explore strategies for maximizing the value of pocket parks within the concept of spatial justice, emphasizing the fundamental principles of accessibility to green spaces and landscape connectivity.
