Nature-Based Solutions and Water Security: An Action Agenda for the 21st Century
presents an action agenda for natural infrastructure on topics of
standards and principles, technical evaluation and design tools,
capacity building and innovative finance. Chapters introduce the topic
and concepts of natural infrastructure, or nature-based solutions (NBS)
and water security, with important background on the urgency of the
global water crisis and the role that NBS can, and should play, in
addressing this crisis. Sections also present the community of
practice’s collective thinking on a prioritized action agenda to guide
more rapid progress in mainstreaming NBS.

With contributions from
global authors, including key individuals and organizations active in
developing NBS solutions, users will also find important conclusions and
recommendations, thus presenting a collaboratively developed, consensus
roadmap to scaling NBS.
