Purpose Develop a conceptual model for the training of Chilean engineers in construction field that considers facultative symbiosis between sustainable (SC) and nature-based solutions (NBS). Design/methodology/approach This study aims to develop Bibliographic data linked complete collection 7,163 articles published 2011 2022 were extracted from Web Science Scopus BA utilizing VOSviewer software. Findings A education SC NBS was developed, based on Bloom’s taxonomy, initial knowledge cross-cutting skills. includes four thematic clusters: green project management, building, materials bioengineering. Its development began with competencies activities defined systematic literature review (SLR), which validated by engineering program directors rated survey as “extremely important,” “very important” or “important.” Originality/value research provides its readers an extensive understanding salient themes, trends patterns NBS. Furthermore, this contributes clear guidelines rapid updating programs.

Not many studies have delved into the research on strategies to advance implementation of environmental economic practices in developing nations, particularly within context Nigerian construction sector. Consequently, this study's primary aim was identify and evaluate major aimed at facilitating integration these country's To achieve objective, a quantitative approach employed, which included distribution structured questionnaire professionals Lagos State, Nigeria. The collected data underwent comprehensive statistical analysis, encompassing techniques such as frequencies, percentages, Kruskal-Wallis H test exploratory factor analysis. Through rigorous identified were grouped four principal factors: capacity-building training-based strategies, awareness communication-based regulatory policy-based financial investment-based strategies. This categorization provides for understanding implementing effectively. As result, contributes both theoretically empirically promotion architecture, engineering, operation (AECO) industry. findings shed light actionable that can help overcome obstacles hindering adoption sustainable holds particular significance policymakers, industry stakeholders committed advancing sustainability Its uniqueness lies its cautious identification evaluation are specifically tailored address distinctive challenges opportunities

The increasing pressure on urban systems and buildings in South Africa caused by rapid urbanization climate change necessitates innovative approaches, including Nature-based Solutions (NbSs), to address environmental societal challenges. As such, this study aimed determine the dynamic role of NbSs shaping sustainability Africa’s built environment. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected via questionnaire survey, which targeted environment professionals. Data analysis involved reliability testing, confirmatory factor analysis, Spearman rank order correlation. survey showed that green roofs, rainwater harvesting, cool roofing pavements, as well living walls, have received above-average attention country, while agricultural byproducts from concrete construction, bioswales, rain gardens, algae-based materials are yet be explored delivery sustainable areas. Overall, deploying promises positive environmental, societal, economic impacts. findings emphasize need for stronger policies regulations promote adoption underutilized within African Theoretically, contributes existing discourse development Africa. nation grapples with diverse social issues, becomes timely, it provides crucial insights into how can some these

Abstract The significance of Nature‐Based Solutions (NBSs) in addressing environmental and socioeconomic challenges is widely acknowledged, yet research on NBSs continues due to a limited understanding their full benefits. This study addresses the existing gap by focusing NBS co‐benefit valuation through digital platforms. These platforms support assessing effectiveness, contributing SDGs, enabling data collection, analysis, stakeholder engagement. paper identifies for quantification, encompassing public health, climate change, water management, air quality, biodiversity, soil values. Some these platforms, like InVEST, ARIES, i‐Tree‐Eco offer multiple models quantify various benefits NBS. FreeStation platform capture near real‐time‐basis, Co$tingNature providing global estimate contribution nature sustainable development goals (SDGs). However, most focus areas, so combining from necessary holistic quantification.
