Elevating Nature-based Solutions
NL2120 stands for using the power of natural systems to tackle the societal challenges of today and tomorrow: Nature-based Solutions. Together with 25 partners – engineers, farmers, nature lovers, scientists and businesses – we are building a future in which nature and technology go hand in hand. By sharing knowledge and applying it in practice, we create resilient areas that are ready for a sustainable future.

Collaboration
NL2120 is a partnership in which several Dutch companies, knowledge institutions and governments bundle their resources and expertise around Nature-based Solutions. Unique in its kind. Rarely have so many Dutch parties, with different backgrounds, brought together their knowledge around this theme on this scale. This partnership consists of knowledge organizations, educational institutions, companies, green social organizations and governments.
As a consortium partner, EcoShape plays a central role in NL2120. EcoShape brings together the international expertise of leading engineering and dredging companies to develop and apply Nature-based Solutions at scale. Within NL2120, EcoShape contributes to research on coastal and water system solutions, connecting scientific insights with practical implementation by its member organisations.
