Workshop: Key insights and lessons for nature-based solutions and territorial planning in the EU
What lessons can be learned from EU regions on design, implementation, governance and monitoring of nature-based solutions (NbS)? What are cross-regional insights on barriers and success factors for NbS? Which policy-relevant recommendations can be drawn? Join this practical workshop co-organised by Climate KIC as part of the ReAdapt project and get insights for your territorial planning.
The ReAdapt Sensemaking Workshop aims to address these questions. It brings together EU, national, and regional policymakers, case study regions and ESPON representatives to distil shared lessons for stronger NbS implementation across Europe. These lessons will directly feed into the ReAdapt Policy Guidance Toolkit, which offers policy guidelines throughout the NbS policy cycle (Problem identification & scoping, Planning & design, Financing, Implementation and Monitoring).
During this interactive workshop, we will:
- Present ReAdapt results so far: the Knowledge repository, Climate risk maps, cross-regional lessons and Policy Guidance Toolkit
- Explore cross-regional insights on barriers and success factors for NbS
- Reflect on NbS design, implementation, governance, financing, and monitoring
- Translate local experiences into policy-relevant recommendations
- Gather insights for the ReAdapt Policy Guidance Toolkit
About ReAdapt
ESPON ReAdapt (Re-Naturing Territorial Development for Climate Risk Adaptation I 2024-2026) aims to strengthen local and regional climate adaptation in the EU by integrating NbS into governance. Despite their effectiveness, NbS face challenges such as fragmented knowledge, limited data and lack of clear policy recommendations. ReAdapt addresses these issues by developing a knowledge repository, spatial climate risk visualizations, gathering best practices from eight case studies, and developing a Policy Guidance Toolkit.
