A two-volume collection showcasing the achievements of URBiNAT:
Two eBooks document the knowledge, practices, and impact of URBiNAT’s work on nature-based urban transformation.
Urban Inclusive and Innovative Nature
– Fundaments and Practices for the Co-creation of Nature-based Cities –
How can we make cities more livable and inclusive? How can we design fairer, greener, and more participatory urban spaces?
This volume tackles today’s challenges by exploring nature-based solutions to enhance community well-being, promote social cohesion, and make cities more resilient to climate change.
Through European and international case studies, it presents practical methodologies and interdisciplinary approaches that bridge urban planning, ecology, and social participation. The experiences showcased demonstrate how co-creating public spaces with local communities can transform peripheries and neglected neighborhoods into places of connection, inclusion, and sustainability.
An essential resource for urban planners, policymakers, researchers, and anyone seeking innovative, forward-thinking solutions to contemporary urban challenges.

Can cities truly be reborn through nature?
Urban peripheries, often seen as marginal in discussions about quality of life, actually hold the potential for radical transformation. Healthy Corridor Atlas: Roadmap for the Co-creation of Nature-based Cities explores new strategies to regenerate these spaces by weaving together green infrastructure, community participation, and social innovation.
Drawing from experiences in cities such as Porto, Nantes, and Brussels, this volume outlines a path for the creation of healthy urban corridors—spaces where nature and people come together to redefine the concept of public space.
A book that merges research, practice, and vision, designed for those who see the city not as a boundary, but as a living, evolving organism.
