Scholarship on Nature-based Solutions (NbS) primarily focuses the potential for NbS to deliver multiple benefits humans and biodiversity from networked natural systems. These approaches, if enacted without sensitivity local contexts histories, can deepen long standing injustices resulting destruction of complex self-organizing ecological systems, usurpation Indigenous governance knowledge, prioritization technical managerial approaches transforming nature into infrastructure. Here we review, synthesize, critically reflect existing scholarship rise in New York City, USA, inform environmental policy support just transformations urban To do so, examine within context social-ecological-technological system (SETS) NYC. We organize our review synthesis around three interrelated concepts justice: Ecological, Environmental, Infrastructural Justice. Ecological Justice entails addressing harms, needs, desired futures actors while identifying synergies with human focused justice concerns movements. Environmental requires restoring systems knowledge making space a diversity social-ecological practices marginalized communities. addresses historical ongoing perpetuated through mainstream infrastructure design practice – including which have increasingly turned towards NbS. Without embedding these principles emergent agendas seeking transformations, they will likely recreate utilitarian, anthropocentric, colonial modes managing as conclude research-to-action agenda meeting interdependent needs ecosystems humans.

AbstractProblem, research strategy, and findings Transit-oriented development (TOD) has been widely encouraged as a strategy to limit urban sprawl, increase density, enhance neighborhood diversity. Federal regional governments have increasingly promoting such TOD in parallel with light rail transit (LRT) projects foster sustainable transitions. Little is known, however, about the processes through which municipalities made changes existing land use regulations achieve goals. In this article we trace municipal plans bylaws surrounding CA$7 billion LRT Montréal (Canada) that opened summer 2023, 7 years after its announcement. Specifically, analyzed whether conformed recommended by metropolitan government while exploring local barriers zoning reform. Through policy spatial analysis, found only limited number of sufficient bylaw between 2016 2022 support aimed at implementing mixed-use zoning, increasing reducing parking ratios. an analysis rezoning processes, see opportunity for improved multilevel cooperation, public engagement activities, positive communication strategies process building integrated transport systems.Takeaway practice These can aid planners policymakers understanding importance reforming approaches TOD, strengthening collaboration different levels government, engaging meaningful consultation practices approach.

The proposed solutions for sustainable development generally require new links and the involvement of multiple sectors. As a consequence, organizations can rely less on closed rational analysis-based forms strategizing; they increasingly see need joint strategy processes. However, process challenges boundaries involved, which creates tensions. This paper takes stock conflicts uncertainties that become involved in strategizing encounter. Our focal point is infrastructure.
