Nature- and culture-based solutions for disaster mitigation and ecosystem conservation in floodplain landscapes: co-creative designs of floodplain communities for river basin disaster resilience and sustainability with nature positive practices

Abstract

Floodplains, where many cities are located, are suffered by floods, storm surges, and tsunamis. As rivers, coasts, and land have been improved for greater convenience and safety since the modern era, the habitats of diverse organisms and their interconnected ecological networks that once existed have been degraded. We focus on the natural and social communities that have been nurtured on such historical flood plains, and codesign new "Floodplain Communities" through water and land use reform for river basin disaster resilience and sustainability with nature positive practices.
