This Thursday CREATivE Talks edition is based on the importance of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in coastal adaptation planning, in relation to the impacts of climate change.

NbS can be considered as an ‘umbrella concept’ encompassing a range of established naturebased approaches which contribute to climate change resilience and disaster risk reduction. These solutions can help reduce social and environmental vulnerabilities and bring multiple co-benefits such as mitigating climate change, improving human health and well-being, providing jobs and creating new business opportunities.

Simultaneous translation in Italian and Croatian will be available
