Collaboration Opportunities (5 minutes)

  • NBS EduWORLD Youth Campaign
    • This campaign aims to activate target groups for NbS, including youth. It includes a toolkit to help youth inform themselves about NbS and promote it on their social media.
  • Comms Toolkit
    • Organised by projects rather than workstreams. Some projects are required to create Comms toolkits, so a group is comparing requirements to develop a systematic approach. They are currently preparing background information and guidance for the toolkits.
  • TF4 Welcome Kit
