Descripción del proyecto
Soluciones basadas en la naturaleza innovadoras en terrenos privados
Las soluciones basadas en la naturaleza (SbN) podrían ayudar a mitigar los efectos de las catástrofes naturales y el cambio climático, pero suelen requerir más terreno que las infraestructuras tradicionales. El objetivo del proyecto LAND4CLIMATE, financiado con fondos europeos, es aumentar la resiliencia de paisajes y zonas urbanas. Para ello, se emplearán esquemas de gobernanza y modelos de negocio innovadores que permitan acceder a terrenos privados para poner en práctica SbN. Este planteamiento elimina la necesidad de adquirir terrenos y permite al proyecto alcanzar sus objetivos de resiliencia al cambio climático. El equipo del proyecto colaborará con los propietarios de tierras para diseñar y probar SbN en terrenos privados utilizando políticas territoriales inventivas, fomentando así un futuro resiliente al cambio climático en regiones que se enfrentan a múltiples peligros como, por ejemplo, inundaciones, sequías y calor urbano. En LAND4CLIMATE se efectuarán pruebas con las SbN en Alemania, Austria, Chequia, Eslovaquia, Italia y Rumanía.
Objetivo
LAND4CLIMATE aims to increase the resilience of landscapes and urban settlements in the continental biogeographical area and beyond by nudging the implementation of nature-based solutions (NBS), which are at large-scale still in its infancy. However, there are three reasons for the tardy uptake of NBS in practice: (1) NBS need more land than grey infrastructure; (2) approaches to NBS hitherto often focus on public land; (3) private land, however, bears huge potential for climate resilience, both as a supplier (in terms of ecosystem service provision) and a recipient of benefits of NBS (in terms of climate risk reduction). LAND4CLIMATE addresses these implementation gaps.
Climate resilience needs land! LAND4CLIMATE aims to get access to private land for the implementation of NBS, not by buying land, but through the development of innovative governance schemes and business models, such as land readjustments schemes, strategic land leases and easements. The main objective of LAND4CLIMATE is to co-design and validate NBS on private land through implementation and upscaling with innovative strategies of land policy for a transformative climate-resilient future in areas with multiple risks, especially coupled extreme hydro-meteorological events such as floods, droughts and urban heat.
LAND4CLIMATE will operationalize this objective in six frontrunner cases in Austria, Czechia, Germany, Italy, Romania and Slovakia by:
• Identifying cause and effect relations of climate risks and NBS to allocate NBS effectively and efficiently
• Developing governance and business models to implement legitimate and just strategies of land policy for NBS on private land
• Enabling successful replication and upscaling
By involving seven replicant regions in the aforementioned countries, LAND4CLIMATE becomes able to replicate, foster and inspire new synergies between NBS beneficiaries and landowners on a wider scale and contribute to the EU’s mission for adaptation to climate change.
