Abstract

This WWF report explores how Nature-based Solutions (NbS) can support climate-resilient infrastructure planning in the Philippines. Using nationwide spatial mapping and modeling, it identifies priority areas where ecosystems can enhance resilience for road networks and communities. The analysis covers ecosystem services including flood risk reduction, sediment retention, coastal protection, and water provision, under current and future climate scenarios. The findings inform national planning efforts and propose policy recommendations to mainstream NbS into infrastructure strategies, balancing development and environmental goals.
