Summary

The NATURVATION project aims to advance urban sustainability by exploring what nature-based solutions can achieve in cities. Led by Durham University, researchers seek to develop a deep understanding of how innovation fosters success in this domain. They work with diverse communities and stakeholders to address complex urban sustainability challenges. Their primary focus is on exploring how these solutions can be realized effectively.

The team utilizes the Urban Nature Atlas to investigate how cities collaborate with nature-based solutions. This database contains 1000 nature-based solutions that are working with cities worldwide. By examining these findings, NaturVation aims to identify which approaches yield the best results. They encourage collaboration through NaturVation activities and outputting NaturVation outputs. Ultimately, the initiative seeks to contribute positively to the realisation of potential for sustainable city environments.
