UNA Global

The Urban Nature Atlas has now gone global, presenting inspiring nature-based solutions from all over the world.

Supplementing the 1000 nature-based solution case studies compiled from the original 100 European cities, the Atlas now includes:

• Non-European case studies drawn from cities featured within the Naturvation project, including Winnipeg, Canada; Boston, USA; Mexico City, Mexico; Sao Paolo, Brazil; Cape Town, South Africa; and Melbourne, Australia
• Case studies from all continents, drawing from 50 countries where nature-based solutions provide climate change adaptation or mitigation. Collection of these case studies was funded by the British Academy in preparation for the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26). 

Work on extending the Atlas database to include more projects is continuing.

We are also open to the submission of new nature-based solution projects, so if you are a project owner or researcher and would like to submit a nature-based solution case study to the Atlas, please visit this page.
