Nature-based solutions (NBS) have been defined as "living solutions supported by natural processes and structures that are designed to address various environmental challenges while providing multiple benefits to the economy, society, and ecological systems."
NBS are receiving increasing attention as actions to address climate challenges by taking advantage of ecological processes and sustainable and resilient planning, since they integrate natural characteristics and processes into cities, through systemic and efficient interventions in the use of the resources.
In this course we will develop a comprehensive syllabus that addresses the circular economy, coastal zone management, waste management and integrated risk management.
