Podcast: Creating Green Cities

Creating Green Cities is a podcast on urban-nature based solutions, explained through stories of inspiring innovators from across Europe who have used their passion and creativity to make cities greener. We talk to guests from Barcelona, Budapest, Malmö and Utrecht to find out why green roofs are so cool, what happens when you start talking to hundreds of people about trees, and why it is more difficult to run a community garden than to start one. The Creating Green Cities podcast has been created as part of the NATURVATION project. The focus of the podcast is on initiatives that bring more nature to the city or which enhance existing green urban areas to deliver multiple benefits to the local population. The five episodes of Creating Green Cities highlight key themes investigated by NATURVATION researchers, including innovation, business models and financing for nature-based solutions as well as reflections on their assessment, monitoring and governance. The interview guests provide practical insights from their experiences of designing, implementing and maintaining urban nature-based solutions across Europe. The episodes can streamed on popular podcast platforms, such as Spotify, Deezer and Apple Podcasts and are available on the NATURVATION project website: https://naturvation.eu/learn/podcast
