Re: PD Committee description

Jody Norman ·
Given that nature-based solutions (NbS) are closely connected to climate mitigation and resilience-building, particularly in urban areas, what are the chances of integrating certification in those concepts and their use into PD? Perhaps we could utilize the course Urban Nature: Connecting Cities, Sustainability and Innovation from Lund University, on Coursera, https://www.coursera.org/learn...n=sustainable-cities as a model, or at least use it to inform our certification.

Given that nature-based solutions (NbS) are a growing and important set of understandings and practices in climate change mitigation and in building resilience, particularly in urban areas, perhaps we could consider adding them to our PD certification. The course Urban Nature: Connecting Cities, Sustainability and Innovation from Lund University could offer some ideas on that front. https://www.coursera.org/learn...n=sustainable-cities
