UC Santa Cruz Center for Coastal Climate Resilience in partnership with The Network for Engineering With Nature (N-EWN) and the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Resilient America Roundtable is convening a national forum focused on the practice of nature-based solutions. The two-day event will be held February 4-5, 2025, at the NAS Beckman Center in Irvine, California.

 

The forum will bring together national leaders and practitioners to discuss innovations in the application of nature-based solutions (NBS) for hazard mitigation and climate adaptation. Discussions will focus on overcoming challenges in scaling NBS and finding collaborative, equitable solutions.

 

The forum follows the 2024 N-EWN National Policy Forum at NAS in D.C. 

 

Travel support for participants from historically underrepresented groups may be available from N-EWN. 

 

Forum objectives include:

 

  • Showcase full-scale implementation of nature-based solutions and lessons learned
  • Promote equity and justice in hazard mitigation and adaptation projects
  • Identify challenges and opportunities to meet objectives for risk reduction and conservation
  • Strengthen partnerships to accelerate the pace of NBS implementation
