The fifth edition of the NBSINFRA newsletter is now out!

After the video tour of our five City Labs in the last edition, this issue moves from images to insights: six info-packs bringing together the project’s core methods and tools, ready for use well beyond the five partner territories. The info-packs span the full breadth of the project’s innovation:

• Resilience and Sustainability Quantification Framework: a data-driven methodology for comparing Nature-Based Solutions under different conditions and extreme weather events.
• Reference Framework Specification for the NBSINFRA Digital Twin, connecting live sensor and satellite data to simulation models, moving planners from monitoring to prediction.
• NBSINFRA Toolbox and API for NBS Tools: an interoperability layer letting planning software, planners, and residents map green interventions and see their projected impacts.
• Co-creation Framework for Citizen Participation with NBS, combining deliberative democracy with geodesign to make communities genuine co-authors of local solutions.
• Self-learning Toolkit for Community Engagement and NBS Co-creation: bridging social reflexivity and technical infrastructure protection through web and text mining, video neuroanalytics, and affective computing.
• NBSINFRA Replication Roadmap: a structured pathway for municipalities, regional authorities, and infrastructure managers to adapt and scale the project’s frameworks and tools.

Together, these six info-packs are an open invitation: to cities facing flood risk or urban heat, to planners seeking evidence-based methods, and to communities wanting a genuine voice in decisions that shape their environment. The knowledge generated across Aveiro, Cologne, Fingal, Prague, and Ruse is ready to travel.

Download the info-packs and start putting them to use.
