 some of the major achievements – and failures. Dr Konijnendijk takes a critical look at urban forestry’s role in current and future cities, highlighting the contributions of urban forests to bioculturally diverse and resilient cities. Lessons will be drawn
 for the future of urban forestry science, policy and practice in Canada – the country where the term ‘urban forestry’ was coined, but where its coming of age has been troublesome.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
