Abstract

Nature-based solutions to mitigate urbanization effects: the case of the Molentargius-Saline Park The urbanization process that has increased in a large part of the Italian territory since the Second World War, requires the adoption of approaches and methods aimed at mitigating the damage caused to the environment and the landscape. The Molentargius-Saline Natural Park, one of the four Regional Natural Parks established in Sardinia and severely marked by human activity, represents a relevant case study to assess opportunities and benefits of particular types of Naturebased solutions (NBS). Within this framework, the authors propose guidelines for short-term interventions, which aim to naturalize the fences of existing buildings and degraded rural areas. This is a first step towards the definition of a more comprehensive scheme of fences to support a governance of protected natural areas, capable of preserving ecosystems, environmental values, and their perception, enhancing the characteristics of the historical landscape. and promoting a new course of development.
