Description: Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) are innovative approaches that utilize natural processes and ecosystems to address social and environmental challenges. These solutions aim to integrate nature into the planning and management of urban, rural, and natural spaces, promoting sustainability and human well-being. By harnessing ecosystem services such as climate regulation, water purification, and biodiversity conservation, NbS offer effective and resilient alternatives to issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Key characteristics of NbS include their ability to be multifunctional, meaning they can provide multiple benefits simultaneously, such as improving air quality and creating recreational spaces. Additionally, they are adaptive and can be implemented in various contexts, from urban to rural areas. The relevance of NbS lies in their potential to contribute to sustainable development, promoting harmony between human activities and ecosystems, and fostering greater awareness of the importance of nature in our lives. In a world where environmental challenges are increasingly urgent, Nature-Based Solutions emerge as a key strategy for building a more sustainable and resilient future.
