This training course will introduce participants to the fundamentals of NbS and provide practical insights on their application in the face of climate change and disaster risks. The course will explore the basics of implementing NbS for resilience building and include case studies from various countries.
The specific objectives of the training are to:
- Introduce ecosystem services and nature-based solutions covering concepts, fundamental principles, and their importance in strengthening resilience to climate and disaster-induced hazards.
- Orient the participants to international frameworks around nature-based solutions, including IUCN’s Global Standard for nature-based solutions.
- Provide practical insights to implement NbS for DRR and CCA and mainstream nature-based solutions into policies.
The training will be conducted in a blended modality. The onboarding for the training course will be conducted online. The onboarding will cover fundamentals that are prerequisites for joining the course. This will be followed by a 4-day in-person training, which will use a case-study-based approach to introduce the mainstreaming and implementation aspects of NbS. During the in-person training, experts will train and mentor participants to identify entry points for NbS in their areas of work.
