Guidance for monitoring pollinators in urban habitats
This guidance aims to bring tools and knowledge for cities to use pollinators as indicators of their urban greening and carry out pollinator monitoring. It builds on the EU Commission guidance for pollinator-friendly cities, and explores options for pollinator monitoring in more depth. It features
Tiny Forest: First monitoring report
Earthwatch Europe has published the first monitoring report for its Tiny Forest programme showcasing the first insights into the benefits to the environment and biodiversity that a Tiny Forest can provide in its early stages. The report highlights the vital role of the "super powerful
The development of a Gender, Inclusion and Diversity Framework for inclusive Nature-based Solutions in cities
Evidence consistently shows that the benefits Nature-based Solutions generate are determined by several individual characteristics such as gender, age, sexuality, ethnicity and disability. As a result, Nature-based Solutions can perpetuate existing inequalities and even create new inequalities

Time-use Studies Factsheet
Time use study is an innovation of the conventional stated preference techniques, in particular taken from the contingent valuation approach. In this case, the payment vehicle is expressed in labour hours rather than monetary units (use in the classical willingness to pay studies) (Kenter et al.
Nature-based solutions for climate mitigation: Analysis of EU-funded projects
Achieving the ambitious goals established by the European Union will require not only transformation of our energy and transport systems, but measures across the economy as well as efforts to harness the potential of nature to contribute to both mitigating climate change and enhancing our
Living Walls

Cost Benefit Analysis (iodine): Land-use typologies for strategic planning
The tool is intended to be used primarily for strategic planning (thinking about different management scenarios), for developing business cases, for reporting impacts, and for supporting instrument design. It is best applied at a broad scale. It is not suited to detailed analysis of short-term or
A catalogue of Nature-Based Solutions for urban resilience
Despite the growing demand for nature-based solutions (NbS) in cities, many people who make planning, financing, and technical decisions for urban resilience building have little knowledge of when and how to build with nature. It creates a need for better guidance, more real-world examples that
