About the Project

The Nature-based Solutions for Urban Resilience in the Anthropocene (NATURA) project links networks in Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, North and Latin America, and globally to enhance connectivity among the world's scholars and practitioners and improve the prospects for global urban sustainability. NATURA exchanges knowledge, shares data, and enhances communication among research disciplines and across the research-practice divide to advance urban resilience in face of growing threats of extreme weather events.

As an important part of knowledge sharing, researchers and practitioners will work together on applications of nature-based solutions (NBS) in a wide range of social, ecological, and technological contexts addressing five gaps:

  • Synergistic benefits of bundles of NBS for urban resilience

  • Role of social-cultural (S) context in NBS outcomes

  • Role of ecological-biophysical (E) context in NBS outcomes

  • Role of technological-infrastructural (T) context in NBS outcomes

  • Role of SET interactions in NBS outcomes
