Royal Irrigation department (RID) is going to implement the Huai Ta Pue reservoir project which is located in Mukdahan province. RID has requested GIZ-ECOSWat for providing the Ecosystem based Adaptation (EbA) expertise (by Dr. Huburt Lohr and Mr. Klaus Sattler, German experts) and it aims to integrate the concept into the project plan during 21 – 24 March 2017.

During the visit, Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA) was introduced and conducted together with field survey along the river basin from upstream to downstream. The collected data during the field trip will be analysed. The experts will present the result of the survey and possible EbA measures that can be applied for this area to the RID in May 2017.
