The "Guidance on Gender, Cultural, and Ethical Considerations (D1.6)" serves as a key resource for project partners and stakeholders engaged in nature-based solutions and urban regeneration efforts. It provides practical guidance on fostering inclusive, transparent, and fair participation while integrating gender, cultural, and ethical considerations throughout project activities.

A commitment to equity, diversity, and ethical integrity

In addition to outlining fundamental principles, the guidance includes clear, actionable recommendations and a set of measurable indicators to help assess and monitor these critical aspects. This ensures that INTERLACE remains committed to equity, diversity, and ethical integrity in its approach. By embedding these considerations into project implementation, we aim to create more inclusive, sustainable, and socially just solutions for cities and communities.

The guidance was published as part of the INTERLACE project, coordinated by Ecologic Institute. It is available in both English and Spanish.

The guidance provides practical recommendations and measurable indicators to ensure inclusive, transparent, and ethical stakeholder participation by integrating gender, cultural, and ethical considerations into project activities.
