We invite you to share your vision of nature-based urban design solutions, driven by Indigenous knowledge that support climate change adaptation and individual and community wellbeing.

If you could imagine a happier and healthier way of living that supports the resilience of community and our ecologies, what would that look like and how does that work? Can design help to integrate nature into urban spaces and transform them so they can evolve or regenerate socio-ecological living systems? How can we respond to societal challenges using Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) together with Indigenous knowledges, while acknowledging, celebrating, and working with local cultural identities? How do these solutions work with the future predicted challenges we are facing? What does better living mean for you and how does that improve our ecologies and wellbeing in just ways? Can climate adaptation contribute to increased Indigenous tino rangatiratanga (self-determination / sovereignty) and mana (pride)?
