The Project

The Project

The project “Nature-Based Solutions: from Theory to Practice” is a collaboration between INRAE, the National Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research, ENGEES, the National School for Water and Environmental Engineering, CNAM, The Conservatoire national des arts et métiers, and the University of California Berkeley, with Dr. Joana Guerrin leading the French team and Dr. Anna Serra-Llobet leading the US team. This project is focused on NbS related to flood risk reduction and compares (1) how France and the US are developing the concept of NbS, in particular to see how NbS is defined by different agencies and institutions in each country, (2) how NbS projects are implemented, and (3) what metrics are used to assess and evaluate the social and environmental impacts of these projects. This three-year project (2021-2023) has specific case studies in both countries.
