Material Detail

Nature-based solutions (NbS) harness the power of nature to benefit both people and biodiversity and are increasingly recognised as a sustainable and pragmatic approach to address societal challenges. In the last decade, the concept of NbS has gained global momentum in the scientific community and the policy arena. This e-study introduces the concept of NbS and illustrates its application through some examples around the world. The e-study is especially suitable for 1) Land, property and habitat managers who would like to understand the NbS concept and adopt it in their projects; 2) Public and private policy-makers who want to understand the NbS principles and policy instruments for formulating better policies and supportive measures; and 3) Students and teachers of architecture, planning and design, nature conservation and built and civil engineering courses who need online learning material for building a thorough understanding of NbS and its practical applications.
