NBS EduWORLD Knowledge Stream: Guidelines on Implementation of Nature-Based Solutions Activities in Education for Starters
The guidelines have been designed to address the requirements of educators with little to no prior knowledge of nature-based solutions (NBS). They provide a step-by-step framework for understanding, implementing, and integrating NBS concepts into different education settings, covering formal, non-formal and even informal education. The guidelines incorporate hands-on activities, recommendations, and practical examples to facilitate educators in effectively conveying NBS-related content to their students. By considering the needs and limitations of the Knowledge Stream, the guidelines aim to build a solid foundation of NBS knowledge among educators and empower them to unlock the potential of NBS education.

NBS EduWORLD Living Labs Roadmap
This roadmap provides a comprehensive approach and structured path to embed environmental and social responsibility and active sustainability citizenship into school education through the integration of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS). It guides schools in reimagining infrastructure, curricula, teaching and learning, and community practices, inspired by nature and leveraging its power to solve real-world challenges. It aims to support the long-term strategy of mainstreaming NBS in education alongside the creation of vibrant, future-ready learning environments where sustainability is not just taught but is lived and practiced daily. Based on evidence and inspiring stories of implementation, it outlines objectives and key actions, highlights basic steps and lessons learnt, discusses opportunities and challenges, and explores the impact of setting up schools as NBS Living Labs for sustainability.
