Integration of NBS in local governance contexts and urbanisation trajectories in CONEXUS EU and CELAC cities. Evidence from Barcelona, Buenos, Aires, Bogotá, Lisbon, Santiago, São Paulo and Turin

The present report analyses the current state of integration in Nature-Based Solutions
(NBS) governance and planning processes within and across scales and dimensions of all
CONEXUS cities: Barcelona, Buenos, Aires, Bogotá, Lisbon, Santiago, São Paulo, and Turin.
Different levels of cooperation and conflicts may arise within and between governance
structures, making integration a key issue in urban governance, in particular in the
development of NBS. Integration is crucial for co-production and co-designing NBS, while the
NBS establishment can also play a central role in encouraging integrating approaches.
