- description:
- When addressing risks in flood affected rural areas like in the Southwest, it is good practice to focus on flood resilience in general, to adjust interventions to the type and extent of flooding and flood damage and to reserve the more costly flood control for protecting high value assets like industries, roads and habitation. For rural areas and agriculture, adjusting to floods (rice and tea cultivation systems) and economic resilience (home gardens, Kithul, tea) are good strategies. It is indicative that extensive community consultations in the Paravi Dola area did not produce any proposals for flood control measures, and prioritised only two infrastructure works, namely a bridge and an irrigation system (a so-called anicut, which was dropped due to cost and time factors)
