Nature-based solutions are interventions designed to use the properties of nature to address multiple sustainability challenges. They are increasingly used across cities and their surrounding rural and coastal areas. In the NATURESCAPES project, we are exploring how nature-based solutions are adding up on the ground from a landscape perspective. In this podcast mini-series, we talk with a range of participants from the project about nature-based solutions. Can we work with multiple nature-based solutions to create outcomes that address long-standing socio-economic challenges, enhance biodiversity and respond to climate change? Or do we face trade-offs between different places, people and outcomes?
