This MOOC provides a definition of the term “Nature-based Solutions” (NbS) and offers a broad overview of NbS as applied to coastal and marine environments. The main objective of the course is to introduce students to the concept of NbS with real-world marine and coastal examples, explore the intersection between NbS and more traditional conservation practices and concepts, as well as discuss the scientific, socioeconomic and political factors that facilitate the adoption of NbS.
It is aimed at managers, public administration technicians, professionals, graduates, postgraduate and vocational training students with an environmental qualification profile, to provide them with innovative, modern and dynamic training in areas related to marine ecosystems.
This course is one of the four MOOCs that formed part of the ‘Specialized TRaining on Applied tools for Sustainable MARine EcosystemS’ itinerary, funded by the EU through the TRASMARES ERASMUS+ project (2019-1-ES01-KA203-065536), coordinated by the Environmental Hydraulics Institute of Cantabria (IHCantabria), in collaboration with the University of Bologna (IT), the University of Coimbra (PT) and Telefónica Educación Digital (TED).
