On 16 March Värmland County Administrative Board had a learning network event about Nature-based solutions with Värmland's municipalities and various experts from example the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency.
Some of the topics were about rain beds in residential areas and flood protection in the city of Karlstad. During the meeting information was shared about grants that can be applied for work with preventive work. There was also a session with discussions in small groups about how the participants could use nature-based solutions in their organizations.
Emma Björkman, VCAB, was leading the network event; There is great interest among the municipalities in Värmland and we are happy to be able to learn, share and discuss important issues about climate adaptation with them, she says.
