During January 2016, the team of Bureau of Conservation and Rehabilitation, Bureau of International Cooperation, Department of Water Resources and GIZ-ECOSWat travelled to Lum Pha Chi sub-river basin. The team visited the sites which were proposed to integrate the EbA measures i.e. River Bank Stabiliztion / Bufferzone / Terracing and Infiltration Basins in order to tackle floods and droughts in sustainable ways. The proposed EbA measures were analysed based on the Vulnerability Assessment which was conducted earlier.
Department of Water Resources, Regional Office 7 (DWR 7) warmly welcomed the team and accompanied the team to the sites. Furthermore, DWR 7 provided insightful information regarding water situation. The delegation team also had a great chance to experience and survey the sties during the dry season, when water scarcity is a main issue.
