The Book Launch event will be held in the form of a round table discussion with invited guests. The topics discussed will originate from the new publication, which will be at the background of the conversation, giving a number of inspirations through quotes of the chapters. The presented book, namely Nature-based Solutions for Sustainable Urban Planning, presents two perspectives on adopting the urban greening policies in contemporary urban design thinking series. Urban greening policies and measures have recently shown a high potential impact on the design and reshaping of the built environment, especially in urban regeneration processes. This book provides insights on analytical methods, planning strategies and shared governance tools for successfully integrating Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in the urban planning practice. The selected contributions of this book present real-life application cases, in which the mainstreaming of NBS is investigated according to two main challenges: the planning and designing of physical and spatial integration of NBS in cities on one side, and the implementation of suitable shared governance models and co-creation pathways on the other. The Book Launch event is considered a continuity to the research activities from the international scientific symposium Greening Cities, shaping Cities previously funded and co-hosted by DAStU in October 2020.
