UNaLab - Urban Nature Labs

UNaLab develops, via co-creation with stakeholders and implementation of ‘living lab’ demonstration areas, a robust evidence base and European framework of innovative, replicable, and locally-attuned nature-based solutions to enhance cities’ climate and water resilience. UNaLab focuses on urban ecological water management, accompanied by greening measures and innovative and inclusive urban design. Demonstrators are implemented in 3 front-runner cities (Tampere, Eindhoven and Genova). They support 7 follower cities.

Therefore, UNaLab results will impact different urban socio-economic realities, with diversity in size, challenges, and climate conditions. To create an EU reference demonstration and go-to-market environment for NBS, UNaLab will use and further develop the ENoLL Urban Living Lab model, the European Awareness Scenario Workshop method for the co-creation of solutions, and the roadmap approach, thereby achieving an innovative NBS toolbox.
