The URBAN GreenUP project has paved the way for a greener and more sustainable urban future, and this report seeks to inspire cities worldwide to embrace NBS as a transformative approach to tackle environmental issues while fostering inclusive and resilient urban development.

This comprehensive report presents an in-depth overview of the groundbreaking URBAN GreenUP project and its profound impact on addressing climate change challenges while promoting sustainable development in our cities. With an emphasis on governance, economic, social, health, and environmental aspects, the project set out to integrate nature-based solutions into urban landscapes, revolutionizing the way we approach urban planning and development.

Through this mini-handbook, we aim to highlight the remarkable achievements, success stories, best practices, and lessons learned as a lasting legacy of the URBAN GreenUP project. Additionally, we delve into its significant contribution to the global knowledge pool, particularly in the implementation of Nature Based Solutions (NBS) in urban areas, inspiring further transformative initiatives worldwide.
