The why, how, and what of indicator-based monitoring of nature-based solutions
Indicator-based monitoring (IM) is crucial to support the uptake of Nature-based Solutions (NbS), to improve the knowledge of NbS benefits, and to promote evidence-based decision-making. Despite the growth of indicator frameworks to support practitioners in setting up IM processes for NbS, practitioners’ perspectives and experiences of IM application, especially in relation to NbS, have been underexplored. We address this knowledge gap through an…
Supporting Nature-Based Solutions via Nature-Based Thinking across European and Latin American cities
Nature-Based Solutions concepts and practices are being used worldwide as part of attempts to address societal challenges but have also been criticised for not dealing with deeper transformations needed to face urgent issues including biodiversity loss, climate change and inclusion. In this paper, we explore how an inclusive, integrated and long-sighted approach, emphasising a more radical integration of nature within cities, might support the tr…
Neotropical urban forest allergenicity and ecosystem disservices can affect vulnerable neighborhoods in Bogota, Colombia
Views of government and non-government actors on urban forest management and governance in ten Latin-American capital cities
Are we promoting green cities in Latin America and the Caribbean? Exploring the patterns and drivers of change for urban vegetation
An action framework for the participatory assessment of nature-based solutions in cities
Impact assessment is a key step in mainstreaming urban nature-based solutions (NBS). Yet, it remains unclear if and how assessment frameworks influence urban planning, design and management. We contend that the potential of current NBS assessment frameworks is not fully exploited due to: (1) limited contextualisation of monitoring and assessment to place-specific contexts and (2) the depoliticisation of co-production. To address this, we present …
Understanding the benefits of public urban green space
Effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on the use and perceptions of urban green space
Extracare
Extracare housing is seen as an innovative solution to meet both accommodation and care needs of increasing numbers of older people. This paper is based on a mixed method study exploring whether extracare is for ‘fit’ and ‘frail’ older people. In particular, we compare the satisfaction (financial, personal, social, environmental and access to personal services) of older people in extracare with those in residential care and older people in the co…
