FUNDING : Apply for the Operationalizing the Benefits of Nature-based Solutions to Guide Decision-Making in a Changing Climate
- To compile quantitative metrics and integrate or align them with existing qualitative metrics across various disciplines, connecting the benefits of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to design criteria and practical application.
- To evaluate diverse, innovative NbS applications against traditional methods, assessing performance, construction costs, operational costs, and multiple added benefits.
- To aid decision-makers in better valuing the benefits and trade-offs of NbS as part of a comprehensive water management approach.
Anticipated Outcomes
The project’s anticipated deliverables are as follows:
- A standalone synthesis document of the literature review, including annotated references for all publications and resources consulted.
- A summarized survey report with analysis on how utilities or municipalities have utilized the framework to quantify NbS benefits.
- A virtual, invitation-only workshop for utilities, featuring two sessions at different times for peer-to-peer learning, complete with all planning and support materials.
- A utility-oriented guidance document, with case studies on applications. This guide will include a field demonstration or pilot project to showcase research applicability and a dedicated chapter on knowledge gaps, research needs, and initial concepts for future projects.
- A webcast and presentations at conferences.
- At least one open-access, peer-reviewed journal article.
Don't miss out on the application deadline which is 14 November 2024
