In urban areas across Europe, unequal access to nature-based solutions (NbS) is a challenge for urban planning. The NATURO project will explore how mosaic governance has the potential to repurpose existing urban NbS in Micro Urban Living Labs and improve the quality of life of marginalised groups. Urban Living Labs are small-scale, local, co-development interventions. NATURO aims to develop a strategic framework for capacity building and stakeholder empowerment. Building on three research projects, NATURO will address the need for political, financial and public support for NbS and make access to NbS more inclusive.
