NBS4RESILIENCE: Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Resilience

The NBS4RESILIENCE project aims to tackle the growing vulnerability of the Adriatic-Ionian region to climate change by implementing nature-based solutions (NBS) to improve climate resilience.

Temperatures in this area are already above 1.5°C higher than in pre-industrial times and therefore the region is exposed to climate shocks and natural disasters such as floods, droughts, forest fires and erosion. The project will introduce several problem-appropriate, nature-based solutions to increase climate resilience and security while improving biodiversity and ecosystem services.

The pilot actions will allow to transfer the findings into the joint Transnational Climate Resilient NBS-based Transition Strategy for the IPA ADRION region. Finally, NBS4RESILIENCE will foster a long-term collaboration between science, policy and practise that will produce several policy proposals and complementary NBS standards that will enable and catalyse the implementation of nature-based solutions (NBS) for climate resilience.

Project will develop:

Project duration: September 1st 2024 – August 31st 2027.
