Abstract
The concept of green infrastructure is an important element of sustainable cities. As components of the green infrastructure system, natural habitats, green corridors, open and green spaces in the urban landscape are interrelated and contribute to the development of urban ecology. In this context, this study aimed to investigate the definition, planning, and the concept of green infrastructure for a sustainable city, to improve the existing green infrastructure in cities in the fight against climate change, within the framework of a theoretical evaluation. Within the framework of sustainable urban development, the concepts have been researched with a qualitative method in a way to provide a theoretical evaluation. After the literature review of this research, conclusions and recommendations were developed. At this point, the concept of green infrastructure has increasing importance for the formation of resilient cities capable of coping with the consequences of global warming and climate change.
