The Nature-based Solutions Hubs (NbS Hubs) are dynamic, locally-driven networks and knowledge centers designed to connect people, ideas, and action. These strategic and creative ‘one-stop shops’ act as catalysts for improving understanding and accelerating implementation of NbS within countries and regions.
Importantly, NbS Hubs do not require a physical space: they are flexible, evolving from existing networks and organisational structures. This allows them to engage stakeholders in their local language and context, creating inclusive and accessible platforms for collaboration.
Each NbS Hub is self-administered and sets its own priorities, focus areas, and activities based on the unique needs of its region and partners. Together, the NbS Hubs are a community of people across Europe working to integrate nature-based solutions into local, regional, and national policy frameworks, transforming shared knowledge into lasting impact.
Curious how different Hubs are moving Nature-based Solutions forward?
Dive into the NbS Booklet — a collection of inspiring interviews with several Hub coordinators, each showcasing their unique approach and local impact.

Polish NbS Hub in Wroclaw
The Polish NbS Hub in Wroclaw is intended to be a place where information on nature-based solutions, good practices and recommendations for local implementation will be gathered. The idea of our Hub is to establish cooperation with cities, scientists, practitioners in order to gather and transfer knowledge about nature-based solutions. These are also potential partnerships that together can compete for external funding for projects, training, NbS-related initiatives.
