Nature-Based Solutions: Co-Creating for Sustainable Urban Futures

➡️ About the workshop:

This session focuses on Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), which encompass actions aimed at protecting, managing, and restoring natural or modified ecosystems. These solutions provide benefits to both human well-being and biodiversity. Examples include the creation of green and blue spaces, coastal protection and management, and stream or river restoration. Through an interactive workshop utilizing a geodesign game developed for the SCORE Project, participants will collaboratively explore how to co-create local urban solutions. Working together, they will propose, discuss, and vote on solutions tailored to specific local contexts.
