Finding common ground: a comparison between coastal nature-based solutions in the Netherlands and British Columbia, Canada

This includes the Netherlands and British Columbia, Canada. Both regions explore new and innovative flood risk and adaptation strategies by initiating nature-based solutions (NBS) pilot projects and integrating research and community initiatives.
