JUSTNature series: Episode #6 – Bolzano & Merano
What happens when cities begin treating nature not as decoration, but as essential urban infrastructure? In this episode, we head to South Tyrol in Northern Italy to explore how the cities of Bolzano and Merano are responding to heatwaves, air pollution, and biodiversity loss through participatory Nature-based Solutions. From public edible gardens and tree inventories to green roofs and policy innovation, this episode reveals how collaboration, patience, and trust can help reshape the future of greener and more inclusive cities.
