Planning a Nature-inspired design Field Trip: Innovations in NBS architecture and engineering with the SDGs

Nature-based solutions are effective in their implementation with architecture and engineering processes in their nature-inspired design. This learning unit offers reflective questions and components to interrogate when designing a site visit or field trip to view nature-inspired design in-person. Examples of innovations in NBS nature-inspired design provide a context for analysis and debate for learners before and after the site visit. The connection of nature-inspired design and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) demonstrates how architecture, engineering and design contributes to addressing key challenges facing the planet.
