Development of a guideline on the integration of nature-based solutions (NbS) for the assessment of climate risk and vulnerability across different spatial scales

The research project will test how nature based solutions (NbS) could be integrated into real projects for climate change adaptation in Canada. The research project will provide a guideline for professionals to understand, justify, and measure the financial and non-financial value of NbS in adaptation work. This project will robustly translate theory into practice, considering […]
