Special session organized by ResearchIng team at TERRAenVISION 2025

The RESEARCHING team, within the TerraenVision 2025 conference, organizes the special session entitled "Integrating Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) into Climate Action: Strategies for Mitigation and Resilience".

This session is dedicated to advancing the integration of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) into comprehensive climate action plans, focusing on both mitigation of climate change impacts and enhancement of community resilience. As climate change continues to pose significant challenges worldwide, developing robust climate action plans that effectively incorporate NBS is increasingly recognized as essential. Such plans are crucial for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing the adaptive capacities of both urban and rural environments to withstand and thrive amidst climate adversities.

The session will explore how NBS can be strategically deployed to complement traditional technological and infrastructural responses to climate change. By emphasizing the symbiotic relationship between natural ecosystem services and human urban planning, the session aims to showcase how cities and communities can transform their landscapes into resilient, sustainable systems that provide essential environmental, economic, and social benefits. Participants will examine the integration of NBS into existing climate action plans, looking at both the challenges and opportunities that this approach presents.

This session is part of the series of events organized within the Empowering Local Climate Action (ELCA) project and will include results obtained within projects such as ELCA, LAND4CLIMATE, LAND4FLOOD, etc.
