How should future cities look and feel? Some cities are doing the necessary work to create a post-industrial transition with nature. They are not merely becoming ‘sustainable’ – but attractive, resilient, healthy, inclusive, aesthetic and engaging. This session will delve into innovative nature-based solutions (NbS) that have been implemented to reinvent post-industrial districts. Join the European Urban Resilience Forum to learn more!
