NBS are already widely implemented in cities throughout Europe and beyond, but lack a coordinated and standardized approach
(Small and medium-sized) cities lack access to resources and knowledge to support them in implementing NBS alongside and instead of “traditional grey infrastructure solutions"
To explore the full potential of NBS to address societal challenges and contribute to sustainable urban transformation, the cumulative impact of NBS needs to operationalised
Remaining challenges
www.ecologic.eu
05/04/2019 Sandra Naumann, Paris Forum, NBS for Climate Resilience
Adapt NBS to local conditions and needs (from society and city perspectives)
Foster an integrated NBS planning, which embraces urban and peri-urban areas
Build on and embed NBS within existing natural area networks (such as green and blue infrastructure) to foster increased connectedness
Explore and deploy new governance approaches from the local to regional scales
Shift mindsets from silo thinking towards more integrated decision-making and planning
What to do next?
