Description:This guidance delves into the opportunities for integrating NbS into community adaptation planning processes with a special focus on the “Steps to Resilience” framework (Figure 1 on page 18). Chapter 1 provides brief overview of NbS and more broadly the role of nature in adaptation and resilience planning. Chapters 2–6 looks specifically at the Steps to Resilience planning framework and for each step discusses how NbS relate to and can be integrated into that planning step. This includes a discussion of key barriers to the use of NbS and opportunities for overcoming those obstacles (see Chapter 6). Chapter 7 describes a variety of financial mechanisms and government programs available to support the application of NbS in communities. Chapter 8 offers a series of case studies highlighting successful examples of the incorporation of natural and nature-based features into community adaptation plans and their implementation. Finally, an Appendix provides a checklist of considerations for the application of NbS.
