Il progetto Horizon 2020 RECONECT promuove a livello internazionale l'utilizzo di Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in aree rurali e naturali per la mitigazione del rischio idro-meteorologico e l'adattamento ai cambiamenti climatici. L'obiettivo è coniugare le necessità di riduzione del rischio con lo sviluppo locale e regionale attraverso una nuova...

Nature-based solutions (NBS) are usually defined as complementary or alternative solutions to "grey infrastructures" (traditionally made with cement) aimed at conserving and regenerating the functionality of natural and semi-natural ecosystems. The research to date shows a considerable potential of NBS to address the current challenges related...
