Description:
As the evidence base on the role and benefits of nature-based solutions (NbS) grows rapidly, these solutions are featuring with increasing prominence in global climate change policy, stressing the importance of their implementation in urban environments. The Horizon2020 project GrowGreen has worked to create climate and water resilient, healthy, and liveable cities through investing in NbS in the partner cities of Manchester (UK), Valencia (Spain), Wroclaw (Poland), Brest (France), Modena (Italy), and Zadar (Croatia), including collaborations with Wuhan (China). Check these videos made by the GrowGreen Cities partners to find out more about their NbS projects.
