CARTIF Technology Centre Badajoz Provincial Council Comunidade Intermunicipal do Alentejo Central Porto Municipal Council Climate Change is one of the most serious environmental, social and economic challenges facing the world. Its impacts (heatwaves, changes in annual and seasonal rainfall patterns, etc.) affect the well-being and health of children and elderly people who use these centres to a greater extent.
Good practice consists of defining and implementing various prototype Nature Based Solutions (NBS) in Gabriela Mistral School in Solana de los Barros (2 553 inhabitants), in order to improve its adaptation to climate change. At the same time, these solutions are being applied in schools in Évora and Porto. In addition, governance actions have been implemented to integrate NBSs into local policies and to involve the population.
