There is a strong European policy agenda to promote nature-based solutions for an integrated, systemic and sustainable approach to climate change. The European Commission defines NBS as a way to address societal challenges with solutions that are inspired and supported by nature, are cost-effective, simultaneously provide environmental, social and economic benefits and help build resilience. Nature-based solutions promote biodiversity, improve health and well-being, provide cost-effective and sustainable economic benefits, and strengthen climate adaptation and resilience to disasters.
