Description
Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) have been identified as one solution to many water related environmental pressures but the widespread rollout of NbS is slow. Here, we highlight findings from several measure types (e.g., leaky barriers, river restoration, 3D buffers) to show how measures can be optimised to deliver benefits to the water environment. We will do this with case study examples and show how measure designs have been utilised by stakeholders. Central to this is the role of people and who benefits, and we will showcase the stakeholders and organisations who are involved and are benefiting from the research.
