This session proposes a reflection on the transformative role of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) in the ecological, symbolic and social reconfiguration of urban public spaces. Inserted in the second thematic axis of the 14th BIAsp – Living with waters –, the proposal is based on experiences that combine architecture, urbanism and landscaping with the regeneration of ecosystems, valuing strategies that strengthen territorial resilience and climate justice.
Initiatives ranging from the renaturalization of water bodies and slope stabilization to urban redesign and community co-creation of public spaces will be presented, discussing the application of NBS as a strategy for climate resilience, environmental justice, and reconnecting the city with its water systems.
Among the highlights will be project experiences related to the proposed topic, developed by the firm Ecomimesis Soluções Ecológicas, represented by its partners Amanda Saboya, Caroline Fernandes, and Pierre-André Martin. In particular, the Realengo Susana Naspolini Park in Rio de Janeiro will be presented, a project that encompasses a wide range of Nature-Based Solutions aimed at managing rainwater and mitigating the effects of climate change.
The session also invites participation from other national and international experiences – urban, peripheral, or natural – that address coexistence with water as a tool for urban restructuring, environmental regeneration, and social inclusion, contributing to a broad agenda of innovation in territorially sensitive ecological infrastructure.
