Saving lives and property — The fight against yearly flash floods in the Hindu Kush Himalaya: a case study of Pakistan
The HKH Adaptation Solutions Portal is one of a collaborative family of regional and topic-orientated portals working with the Adaptation at Altitude programme to collect and connect knowledge on successful climate change adaptation solutions.
These portals are connected through the Adaptation at Altitude Solutions Portal, a global portal working to share solutions that can be scaled-up and translated into new contexts across the world, and to promote exchange, networking and discussion via a dedicated community for adaptation in mountains.
Himalayan Adaptation, Water and Resilience (HI-AWARE) Research on Glacier and Snowpack Dependent River Basins for Improving Livelihoods
This solution has been uploaded by Julia Aguilera on behalf of the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) and the HI-AWARE consortium members.
Integrated Water Resource Management: Water for Virunga Project
This solution is one of 18 climate change adaptation solutions shared in Mountains ADAPT: Solutions from East Africa, which showcases adaptation solutions proven to be successful in response to specific issues caused or accelerated by climate change. These solutions were selected for their inclusive approaches, their potential to be transferred and upscaled, as well as their extended benefits for downstream communities across the East Africa Community.
This solution is described in the booklet on page 26: "Put rain to use".
