Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) are solutions that are inspired and supported by nature. These solutions provide environmental, social and economic benefits and help build resilience by bringing natural features into cities and landscapes.

The OPERANDUM project is funded by the European Union within the framework of the H2020 projects and aims to provide the tools and methods for the demonstration and market adaptation of new natural solutions to reduce hydrometeorological risks.

OPERANDUM is based on outdoor laboratories (OAL), a new concept of living laboratories that will give a broader view of natural and rural areas. In the OALs, innovative nature-based solutions (NBS) are being designed, tested and implemented that are being exposed to the different project organizations and local people in the area. It is proposed to provide scientific evidence for the usefulness of the NBS and best practices for its participatory process-based design.
