Launch of the English and Global South Edition of the "Guide for integrating nature-based solutions in urban planning".

The "Guide to include nature-based solutions in urban planning" was written in Spanish in 2020 for Colombian cities, through the support of Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung and Ecologic Institute (Germany) and Humboldt Institute in Colombia. The main goal of the guide is to guide the process of integrating an NbS approach in urban planning and providing specific recommendations for its design and implementation in the Colombian context. After 3 years of working on the implementation of the Guide in several urban contexts, providing numerous capacity-building sessions, and understanding the value of the guide in practice, the author and collaborators have decided to translate the Guide into English, communicating lessons learned and motivate its use in the global south, where it's most needed. Through this session, we expect to launch the guide in English and provide an executive session to train participants on how to use the guide.
