 Natural Based Solutions as an Approach of Resilient Cities to Face Climate Change "Analytical Framework to Apply NBS in Cities"Nihal Alaa' ElDien Muhamed Rafeek, Ehab Okba and Mohga Embaby Journal of Management World, 2024, vol. 2024, issue 4, 867-881 Abstract: Climate change is a pressing global issue with profound implications for urban environments. This research investigates the multifaceted impacts of climate change on cities, including rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and sea-level rise. It explores the concept of resilient cities, emphasizing the need for urban planning and infrastructure that can adapt to and mitigate these challenges. A particular focus is placed on natural-based solutions (NBS), which utilize nature-based approaches to address climate change impacts. The paper examines the potential of NBS, such as green infrastructure, urban forests, and blue-green infrastructure, in enhancing urban resilience. By integrating NBS into urban planning, cities can improve their ability to cope with climate change, reduce vulnerability, and create more sustainable and livable environments. The research concludes with recommendations for policymakers and urban planners on implementing NBS to build resilient cities and secure a sustainable future.
