Join Our Webinar: Renaturing Cities to Restore Ecosystems and Build Urban Resilience

Cities are feeling the pressure. Climate shocks, biodiversity loss, and shrinking natural resources are pushing urban systems to their limits. It’s clear we need to rethink how we build and the way we live with nature. Part of the problem is that ecosystems have long been treated as resources to extract from, rather than vital living systems we’re part of. 

 

In the fourth session of Cities on the Frontline of 2025, we’ll explore how renaturing cities—bringing nature back into urban environments—can help restore ecosystems, build resilience, and improve quality of life. This session will highlight how cities are embedding nature into urban planning through both high-level strategies and localized solutions. 

We’ll hear from Latin American and European cities placing biodiversity at the heart of urban development, through strategies like ecological corridors, bioeconomy, and citizen science. We’ll also explore how localised solutions, like regenerative agriculture and organic waste reuse, can help put these strategies into practice, strengthen food systems, and support circular economies.

 

Join us to explore why renaturing is both possible and essential for creating healthier, more livable and more resilient cities.
