The book "Making Urban Nature Bloom" has been published
“Making Urban Nature Bloom” was coordinated by ICLEI Europe and is based on the case studies of the H2020 NATURVATION project (NATure-based URban innoVATION), of which the ICTA-UAB is one of the partners.
The book is based on the case studies referring to the analysis and promotion of nature-based solutions in the cities of Barcelona, Malmö (Sweden), Utrecth (Netherlands), Leipzig (Germany), Győr (Hungary) and Newcastle (United Kingdom). The Institute of Environmental Science and Technology of the Autonomous University of Barcelona (ICTA-UAB) and ENT Environment and Management are the local partners of Barcelona.
This book reviews the main insights derived from approximately a hundred of meetings and participatory workshops with local and regional stakeholders from the six cities over the four years of the project. This publication also aims to inspire the implementation of nature-based solutions in urban areas worldwide.
