Nature-based solutions (NbS) are actions that hold the twin objectives of providing for human well-being and protecting the environment. They are a tangible solution that can build immediate and long-term resilience for those affected by crisis.
This interactive module is designed to equip humanitarians with practical knowledge and strategies to incorporate NbS into their work. With seven comprehensive sections, it explores the principles of NbS, showcases real-world applications, and provides actionable guidance for implementation.
As you journey through the course, you will meet three fellow learners who share your curiosity and commitment to making a difference.
Whether you are new to NbS or looking to deepen your understanding, this e-learning module provides a practical introduction.
