This report organises its findings around six interconnected ENACT systems. In agriculture and food systems, NbS can reverse degradation, reduce emissions and enhance food security. In human settlements, NbS improve public health and foster inclusive, liveable cities. For natural and modified ecosystems, NbS safeguard ecological integrity and carbon sinks while supporting livelihoods.

The overall purpose of this scoping study is to provide a state-of-the art overview of the Albanian national context in regard to the application of NbS approaches for climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR).
