00:00:08.940 --> 00:00:11.580 align:middle line:10%
This course tackles
the big question--

00:00:11.580 --> 00:00:15.600 align:middle line:10%
how can nature help us overcome
the challenges facing cities?

00:00:15.600 --> 00:00:18.390 align:middle line:84%
You have the unique
opportunity to join people

00:00:18.390 --> 00:00:20.730 align:middle line:84%
from all over the
world to explore ideas

00:00:20.730 --> 00:00:23.250 align:middle line:84%
together and learn
by understanding

00:00:23.250 --> 00:00:25.050 align:middle line:90%
each other's perspectives.

00:00:25.050 --> 00:00:27.060 align:middle line:84%
Together, we create
the opportunity

00:00:27.060 --> 00:00:29.880 align:middle line:84%
for transforming cities
by embedding nature

00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:31.650 align:middle line:90%
into the urban fabric.

00:00:31.650 --> 00:00:33.540 align:middle line:84%
We have undertaken
research and also

00:00:33.540 --> 00:00:35.370 align:middle line:84%
help to deliver
cutting-edge examples

00:00:35.370 --> 00:00:37.950 align:middle line:84%
of both new and retrofitted
urban developments

00:00:37.950 --> 00:00:41.710 align:middle line:84%
at the edges of cities right
through to the urban heart.

00:00:41.710 --> 00:00:44.340 align:middle line:84%
While the ideas and
approaches are new,

00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:47.920 align:middle line:84%
they are now in strong demand
from industry, government,

00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:50.520 align:middle line:84%
and community groups
seeking to enhance nature

00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:52.660 align:middle line:90%
in cities around the world.

00:00:52.660 --> 00:00:54.748 align:middle line:84%
We begin with the assumption
that everyone here

00:00:54.748 --> 00:00:56.790 align:middle line:84%
comes with their own
perspectives and experiences

00:00:56.790 --> 00:00:59.640 align:middle line:84%
that contribute to
co-creating knowledge.

00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.910 align:middle line:84%
And now, we welcome you to be
part of our learning community.
