How can we scale Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to enable real world impact and adoption. This one-hour online event brings together the EU funded projects JUSTNature, UPSURGE and Invest4Nature to explore how NbS are being developed, implemented, and scaled in practice.

A dedicated panel discussion will highlight best practices and lessons learned from multiple cities across Europe, followed by insights into market and business perspectives, including investment considerations and pathways for exploitation. The event will also introduce the Nature Building Helix ecosystem, inviting participants to engage further and connect with a growing community working to turn NbS research into impact.

This event is open to researchers, project managers, innovation professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in nature-based solutions, their societal value, and their journey from research to implementation.

JUSTNature aims to activate nature-based solutions (NbS) by ensuring a just transition to low-carbon cities, based on the principle of the right to ecological space. This in particular refers to the right to clean air and indoor/outdoor thermal comfort for human health and well-being, as well as thriving biodiversity and ecosystems. It also refers to the duty of not constraining the ecological space of others, in particular in relation to the mitigation of climate change and measures required for reducing GHG emissions.

Invest4Nature is an EU-funded project that contributes to the creation of a market for nature-based solutions. A group of 15 partners from 11 European countries prepare the grounds for investments in nature-based solutions by evaluating its benefits and economic performance.
