Socio-economic assessment of flood risk management options
This PowerPoint presentation, given at World Water Week, assesses the socio-economic costs and benefits of different flood risk management options, using the Lower Incomati River Basin as an example. The key point is that, in the example case, the best socio-economic solution is the one that shares both risks and benefits between the private sector sugar industry and its contract farmers, with real knock-on benefits for low-income stakeholders in the catchment.
