Most participatory approaches were researcher-led, leading to varied levels of community engagement and support.
Of 1926 records, only 13 studies on physical activity in urban green spaces met inclusion criteria, indicating a focused but limited research domain.
Participatory approaches showed positive effects, especially when using co-design and citizen science methods for broader social benefits.
Future interventions should have strong participant involvement throughout all stages to optimize physical activity outcomes.
