Background of The CityGreen Lab

Established 2019

The CityGreen Lab was founded in early 2019 by Chris Boulton and established online on 27 March 2019 and evolved as The CityGreen Lab Pty Ltd in February 2021.

Dr Chris Boulton

Based on Australia's Gold Coast, my research is examining the factors that shape urban greenspace provision, in pursuit of a better approach. 

An Experienced Greenspace Manager

My expertise is municipal urban greenspace management, landscape architecture, environmental planning and crime prevention, under-girded by almost 30 years of professional practice. I kicked it all off training as a landscape architect with national and global practices. Then, drawn by the opportunity and satisfaction of supporting local communities to develop with limited resources, I invested the next 15 years of my career in local government, almost 10 of those were in senior management role.

A Passionate Professional

Australia’s Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA) awarded me an honorary Fellowship in 2012 in recognition of my commitment to the profession and outstanding leadership within local (municipal) government  serving as AILA Qld State President (2009-2011). The Australian Government awarded me an Endeavour Research Fellowship (2017-2018), to undertake research in Canada, as part of my doctoral work using comparative case studies as grounded research. 

An Experienced Leader

I am recognised as a leader by my peers, offering inspiration and insight for individuals and learning communities through research and education about the values, challenges and opportunities for supporting healthy cities. Amongst my colleagues, I am known for my strong sense of personal responsibility, my strength as an incubator - pondering ideas and being inquisitive, as well as my commitment to service - I love to help!
