Nature-Based Solutions' Implementation at City Level
This paper advocates for cities to adopt nature-based solutions through evidence-based arguments and case studies of cities across the globe.

This resource explores evidence-based approaches to finance and implement nature-based solutions using case studies from various cities around the world. The report was produced by Urban20.
