The purpose of this learning scenario is to explore an urban ecosystem of a city, analysing its ecosystem services and determining whether it acts as a nature-based solution (NbS) to challenges such as diminishing biodiversity, urban heat islands and urban decay. Although this learning scenario uses Uppsala as an example, it can be implemented using other cities and areas as a basis. Students are going to visit a green area (in this example: Rosendal) to understand better the role of ecosystem services and NbS. Rosendal is a new area in Uppsala specifically planned with a focus on ecosystem services.
