Integrated Nature-based Solutions Design & Delivery Programme 2026 is a structured, practice-led training series guiding professionals from brief setting through concept, outline, detailed design and long-term stewardship of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in Irish urban environments.
Nature-based solutions (NbS) offer a powerful, place-specific approach to enhancing climate resilience—addressing flood risk, heat stress and environmental degradation while working with natural systems and local geography.
This programme provides a structured introduction to NbS concepts and progressively develops participants’ capability through the full design and delivery lifecycle, increasing in technical complexity at each stage. It equips practitioners with practical tools, strategies and guidance to manage risk, navigate statutory processes and deliver improved outcomes for both the environment and infrastructure projects.
