NbS CataTool: catalogue and tools for designing Nature-Based Solutions

Nature-Based Solutions offer concrete answers to environmental and social challenges, but clear and accessible tools are needed to apply them.

NbS CataTool is an interactive dashboard that collects and organizes case studies, indicators and quantitative data on natural solutions.

Users can explore the catalog by guided pathways or free browsing, filtering by goal, ecosystem type, or geographic area.

Each NbS is documented with detailed fact sheets, images and technical references to facilitate the design of sustainable and replicable interventions.
