The Urban Nature Gateway is an online tool that provides practical insights and resources of the INTERLACE project to support you in addressing six key challenges: evaluating and assessing Nature-based Solutions (NbS); developing effective (co-)governance strategies; engaging citizens; promoting inclusion and diversity; integrating NbS in urban planning and design, and supporting private-sector provision of NbS.
The resources include a comprehensive free online course, guidance documents, case studies, assessment tools, webinar recordings, business cases, reports and interactive urban design tools. The resources are accessible in the City NBS Tool under six headings, representing common challenges faced by local governments and other actors working with NbS in (peri)urban contexts.
