Our 10-week Skills Bootcamp will provide an in-depth knowledge of the state of the art in green infrastructure policy and practice, using case studies, tools and evidence from the UK and internationally. These include the key terms and concepts associated with green infrastructure, ecosystem services, urban ecology, nature-based solutions and natural capital; the functions and benefits provided by green infrastructure; planning and design of green infrastructure at different spatial scales and for different functions including climate resilience, nature recovery, health and wellbeing, and delivery and long-term maintenance and monitoring. 

The topics are aligned with current national and West of England priorities for increasing access to nature, climate resilience and nature recovery, as well as tackling health inequalities and delivering future-proof new homes.
