Abstract
The increasing impact of climate change around the world has increased uncertainty about water security, particularly in drought-prone regions. For this reason, nature-based solutions (NBS) are emerging as a new technique to address these challenges and achieve basin adaptation and resilience. However, the use of NBS is still limited due to a lack of information, especially in relation to water security, which undermines investment in their application. Therefore, this project aims to address the challenges of water security in the face of climate change by reducing the knowledge gaps between ecosystem relationships, NBS and water regulation. For this purpose, it proposes the development of an innovative assessment model to evaluate the contribution of NBS to water security and to promote sustainable investments for companies, as well as a support tool for communities that maintain these techniques and for public institutions, in order to be able to generate new water management policies that benefit the water security of all stakeholders at a sustainable level.
