Climate change is enhancing the intensity and frequency of floods, which further exacerbates many other challenges. This project co-developed and tested a flood resilient home with communities in Bangladesh.
Research project
Rapid economic change and population growth increase the pressure on water resources management to address competing demands across river basins. The key challenge is to give adequate representation to the many local, small-scale water management interventions in larger-scale decision-making.

Natural flood management to reduce flood risk and restore Eddleston Water for community and wildlife
Natural flood management (NFM) can help us adapt to climate change, reducing flood risk and conserving habitats, while sustaining farming livelihoods. We are testing this at Eddleston Water, within the Scottish Government’s research programme on the effectiveness of catchment-scale NFM measures.
