Description:
This study assesses policy instruments, such as plan/legislative, economic and information instruments, to include NbS in urban governance and planning agendas. It conducted a systematic literature review, using a bibliometric and a content analysis, collating and reviewing papers that consider policy instruments and NbS in order to: (i) assess the existence of policy instruments that influence the adoption of NbS; and (ii) evaluate the existence of specific examples of policy instruments. Results show that plan/legislative instruments are most mentioned, followed by economic and information instruments.
