Abstract

1. The infographics are based on the six MERLIN Sectoral Strategies which provide a roadmap for integrating Nature-based Solutions (NbS) into key
economic sectors: Agriculture, Hydropower, Insurance, Navigation, Peat Extraction, and Water Supply and Sanitation.
2. Economic sectors play a crucial role in both impacting and benefiting from freshwater restoration. These strategies provide clear, actionable pathways for aligning Sectoral priorities with NbS implementation.
3. The infographics illustrate each sector’s vision, core actions, and interpretation of NbS, making complex strategies more accessible and easier to distribute.
4. By presenting key concepts visually, the infographics invite non-academic audiences - policymakers, industry experts, and the public - to better engage with sector-specific approaches to NbS.
