The report ‘From Ideas to Action’ presents the strategy papers of the seven INTERLACE partner cities, which were developed in close cooperation with local stakeholders in Europe and Latin America. These papers highlight tailor-made strategies for nature-based solutions (NbS), including the revitalisation of urban parks in Chemnitz and the development of a search engine for green infrastructure projects in Kraków. The aim is to effectively address the unique challenges of each city, such as climate change, biodiversity loss and social inequality.
Focus on participation and innovative tools
The authors emphasise the importance of participatory processes that ensure the close involvement of the local population and stakeholders. They also present innovative tools that support cities in the development and implementation of NbS. The publication thus offers not only theoretical insights, but also practical approaches to successfully shape the path from idea to implementation.
General information
