Naturethon | Nature-based Solutions: co-benefits and citizen engagement

In this webinar, Andrea Staccione (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and Alfredo Reder (CMCC) will present nature-based solutions (NBS) and their multiple application contexts in relation to their ability to work positively on mitigating the effects of climate change and reducing disasters. In addition, the webinar will emphasize the importance of local communities and citizens, whose participation in the development of shared knowledge and the creation of a critical mass in their territories is essential for the implementation of resilient ecosystems.

The event is part of the Naturethon initiative and has been jointly organized by NATURANCE and the AGORA project.

NATURANCE is a project funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme. It will examine the technical, financial and operational feasibility as well as performance of solutions that are based on disaster risk finance and investments and combine them with nature-based solutions.

AGORA is a HORIZON project initiated in January 2023 and coordinated by the FCCC. It supports the overall objectives of the Climate Change Adaptation Mission by promoting processes of societal transformation in different social, economic and political contexts through transdisciplinary tools and approaches. The project promotes effective engagement of citizens and communities in climate actions, accelerating and scaling up adaptation processes to build a climate-resilient Europe.
