Examples from our projects

Flood risk in Cuba: in the Mampostón sub-basin we produced a flood risk map with 14 flood intervention points and a potential to capture 1.5 million litres of floodwater.
Flood risk in Kenya: together with TU Delft we identified six flood protection locations in the Isiolo River Basin.
Environmental and social impact in Burundi: in the Imbo Basin we completed an ESIA of SLAMDAM, with a hydrological assessment and a suitability analysis.
Gender analysis in Burundi: a gender analysis and action plan for gender-responsive flood and drought management in the Imbo Basin.

Frequently asked questions about flood risk technical consultancy

What does a flood risk assessment include?

A flood risk assessment identifies where flooding can come from, how likely and how severe it is, and who and what is exposed. It ends with options to reduce the risk.

What is a feasibility study for a water project?

A feasibility study checks whether a proposed solution works technically, what it costs and delivers, and what is needed to build it, so decision makers can choose before they invest.

When is an environmental and social impact assessment needed?

Authorities and lenders usually require an environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) for larger infrastructure projects. It identifies the effects on ecosystems and communities and sets out how to avoid or reduce them.
