Design-driven Project Preparation for Green and Resilient Cities

On November 13, our Felixx colleague Eduardo Marín will speak at the design-driven Project Preparation for Green and Resilient Cities session. Exploring how design-driven approaches in early project preparation can help shape integrated, holistic solutions, including those that leverage Nature-Based Solutions (NBS). About the event This session is hosted by the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR), the Global Program on Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Resilience (GPNBS), and the Dutch Government’s Water as Leverage (WAL) program. It will share lessons from initiatives in Colombia and Kenya that apply participatory design in the early stages of project preparation. By engaging stakeholders and multidisciplinary experts, these approaches help teams develop city-wide visions for urban resilience, integrate water systems thinking, and secure financing for transformative interventions, including NBS.
