2 CASE VUORES, CO-CREATION AND NATURE BASED SOLUTIONS

3 Vuores neihgborhood A green district in the south part of Tampere, middle of natural woods and waterbodies Currently 3000 people -> 2030, people and jobs Vuores storm water management system is one of the largest in Nordic countries and the most North of the world. Constraction phase started in 2009 with a housi

4 Vuores NBS 4 bioswales 10 retention ponds 3 wetlands willow treatment 2 alluvial meadows biofiltration system Main impacts Visually aestetchic blue green areas for people to recreate Green corridors Preventing solids and nutrient loads from massive excavation work Alluvial meadows have effectively prevented floods

19 Stormwater Day at the School of Vuores Participatory design game and LEGO serious play to raise awareness of NBS collect ideas to develop NBS further to give the pupils tools to monitor water quality and biodiversity

20 Urban Nature Blue and Green Vuores Workshop Participatory design game Residents and other stakeholders received information on the NBS Experts received information on user experience and willingness to participate in cocreation/maintaining of the NBS

21 The Nature Trail and the Blue and Green Treasures of Vuores Identifying the real needs of the different stakeholders involved

22 Elements which contributed to success Vuores was built on a greenfield area and there was pressure to make the area environment friendly. The housing fair area gave resources to build a large storm water management system. Co-creation process with different stakeholders has given us a change for mapping different viewpoints for further development of existing NBS. Co-creation process also increased social cohesion. Active citizen society and NGOs have been actively taking part to cocreation process and also helped the progress of nature trails and urban gardening in the area.
