Workshop for Nature Based Solutions in the Baltic Sea Region on 25 March
We would like you to save the date for a PEER learning workshop for Nature Based Solutions in the Baltic Sea Region. Interreg BSR project CityBlues– Blue-green nature based solutions for climate change adaptation and citizen wellbeing is having its consortium meeting in Tallinn and as TalTech is a partner in both CityBlues and LATESTadapt we saw the opportunity to have a twinning event to share experiences how similar challenges have been addressed in different projects and learn from the different pilots. Peer-learning workshop is planned on the 25th of March 2026 in Tallinn (venue tbd).
Preliminary programme includes methods developed in both projects, like Berlin Water Competence (KWB) centre will speak about NBS monitoring guidance, CityBlues consortium will present the Joint Operational Model for mainstreaming catchment scale NBS and we can discuss the guidance for using native species in NBS – presenting LATEST guidance with reflections from Danish and Finnish approaches. Additionally we plan a peer learning workshop where we show the pilots and facilitate a roundtable of “curious questions – why, how and what”so we could learn from the experiences of others. For LATESTadapt partners, it will offer a great opportunity to see how cities much more advanced in implementing urban green infrastructure projects like Aarhus (DK), Malmö (SE), Tampere (FI) and Stavanger (NO) tackle the same issues we face in our challenge in implementing NBS for Estonia and Latvia.
