The Philippines is preparing for more severe and frequent flooding as climate change ramps up extreme weather events.
This brief shares insights from pilot projects developing integrated flood risk management in major Philippine river basins. It distills lessons on harnessing the functions of natural river systems to boost climate resilience at relatively low cost, and highlights how nature-based solutions can strengthen flood risk management in cost-effective ways.
Nature-based solutions include restoring wetlands, developing water retention areas, removing obstacles and reviving old channels. Such solutions complement conventional infrastructure to improve flood protection and create additional environmental and social benefits.
