Collaborative scenario development as an initiator of transformative thinking in flood risk management
The interplay between climate extremes, urbanisation, and land use planning poses a complex challenge for policymakers, disaster managers and residents of flood-prone areas. Stakeholders must navigate these factors to reduce flood risk while also sustaining livelihoods against increasing extremes and intensifying flood hazards. Transformative adaptation, involving system changes to socio-ecological system, is an effective way to address structura…
Adaptive capacity of homeowners in Ghana to improve technical and social flood resilience
Dynamics of Human–Water Interactions in the Kilombero Valley, Tanzania
The Kilombero Valley, one of East Africa’s largest seasonal wetlands, is a high-potential agricultural development corridor area in Tanzania. This seasonally flooded wetland is mainly used by smallholder farmers who cultivate during the rainy season, although there are some community-based irrigation systems that reduce hydro-climatic risks. In this study, we aim to understand how farmers’ aspirations and visions about the future are related to t…
Influence of human-surface water interactions on the transmission of urinary schistosomiasis in the Lower Densu River basin, Ghana
Male children have higher exposure to urinary schistosomiasis than females. • Children of 13 years and above have higher odds of urinay schistosomiasis. • Recreational, domestic and occupational water-contacts have higher odds ratios. • More frequent and longer water-contacts contributed to high odds of blood in urine
Perception and handling of uncertainties in water management—A study of practitioners’ and scientists’ perspectives on uncertainty in their daily decision-making
Participatory modelling for sustainable development
Stakeholder participation is considered a key principle for sustainable development in the context of natural resource and disaster risk management. Participatory modelling (PM) is an interactive and iterative process in which stakeholder involvement is supported by modelling and communication tools. Planning and decision-making for sustainable development (SD)integrate three substantive dimensions − social, ecological and economic. The procedura…
Collaborative decision making in sustainable flood risk management
Using education and social learning in capacity building – the IntECR concept
Purpose – The aim of this paper is to present a concept where social learning is used in education. Thematically, the concept is suitable for complex, interdisciplinary, societal challenges with a high degree of uncertainty regarding future changes. It is exemplified here by the need to link disaster risk reduction (DRR) with climate change adaptation (CCA) and flood risk management (FRM). The concept answers to the variety of adopted solutions a…
