本研究は、ルワンダ・キガリ市ガサボ県における自然を基盤とした解決策（NbS）の都市気候レジリエンスへの効果を検証。2005年から2025年の間に植生被覆が27%から39%に増加し、NDVIも向上。NbSが生物多様性、洪水リスク低減、気候調整に寄与することを実証。
English
This study examines the role of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) in enhancing urban climate resilience in Gasabo District, Kigali, Rwanda. Using mixed methods including household surveys, key informant interviews, and GIS/RS analysis, it finds that vegetation cover increased from 27% to 39% (2005-2025) and NDVI improved, confirming NbS contributions to biodiversity, flood reduction, and climate regulation.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではNbS（自然を基盤とした解決策）が都市計画や防災に注目されつつあるが、本論文はアフリカの事例であり直接的な政策連動は限定的。ただし、気候適応策としてのNbS効果実証データは参考になる。
In the global GX context
This paper provides empirical evidence from Rwanda on the effectiveness of Nature-Based Solutions for urban climate resilience, contributing to the global NbS literature. It supports the growing recognition of NbS in climate adaptation frameworks such as those under the UNFCCC and the Global Goal on Adaptation.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides empirical evidence on NbS effectiveness for urban climate resilience using mixed methods, useful for researchers in urban ecology and climate adaptation.
🏢実務担当者:Urban planners and local governments can use findings to justify scaling NbS interventions like tree planting and wetland restoration.
🏛政策担当者:Policymakers in developing countries can reference this case for integrating NbS into national adaptation plans and urban planning.
📄 Abstract（原文）
This study examined the role of Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) in enhancing urban climate resilience in Gasabo District, Kigali City, Rwanda, focusing on biodiversity conservation, flood risk reduction, and climate regulation. A mixed-methods design was used, combining quantitative data from 400 household respondents across 15 sectors, qualitative insights from 15 key informants, and GIS/Remote Sensing analysis of Land Use Land Cover (LULC) and NDVI changes between 2005 and 2025. Findings show that NbS interventions such as urban tree planting, agroforestry, and wetland restoration are widely implemented. Vegetation cover increased from 27% in 2005 to 39% in 2025, while mean NDVI rose from 0.680 to 0.726, indicating improved ecosystem health. Results further confirm strong contributions of NbS to biodiversity, flood reduction, and climate regulation. Correlation analysis revealed strong positive relationships between NbS and urban resilience indicators. The study concludes that NbS significantly enhance urban climate resilience and recommends scaling up interventions, improving institutional coordination, and integrating NbS into urban planning and climate adaptation strategies.
