More than green
Lighthouses of transformative
nature-based solutions
for inclusive communities
Adapting to climate change and halting further warming involves harnessing nature’s ability to restore and safeguard ecosystems. Nature-Based Solutions (NBSs) encompass various methods, such as ecosystem-based management, sustainable forest practices, and blue-green infrastructures. The EU-funded TRANS-lighthouses project aims to gather evidence highlighting the tangible and intangible outcomes of NBSs. This data will aid in crafting NBSs that have significant ecological and social impacts, prioritizing goals of social justice and inclusivity. Embracing a non-linear approach, TRANS-lighthouses will integrate diverse stakeholders, institutions, knowledge, practices, and values to design NBSs that meet the current and future needs of communities in a fair manner.
A network of lighthouses to ground innovation
Our goals are brought to life in a network of NBS’ lighthouses for urban, rural, coastal and forested areas. Each lighthouse will lead research in participatory-action, involving local communities in the co-creation of the solutions. Find out more about our local pilot cases and Living Knowledge Labs.
