Over 700 people attended the live launch of the International Guidelines on Natural and Nature-Based Features for Flood Risk Management on September 16, 2021.  Host Sarah Thorne talks with Todd Bridges, Lead, Engineering With Nature, United States Army Corps of Engineers, about the importance of the Guidelines.   This effort was the culmination of five years of collaboration to develop the Guidelines, 1000 pages of knowledge, information and experience about the use of natural nature-based features for flood risk management and, the 150 page Overview that is intended to be more accessible, to a broader range of readers beyond the technical community.  As Todd notes, “we've developed some thoughts, ideas, and information that we believe will help practitioners, agencies, authorities, and organizations and communities around the world pursue this idea of combining nature with engineering and infrastructure to develop better systems that perform in a sustainable and enduring way into the future.” Listeners can watch the event and download the The International Guidelines on NNBF for Flood Risk Management  at www.engineeringwithnature.org.     Related Links:  EWN Website ERDC Website Jeff King at LinkedIn Jeff King at EWN Todd Bridges at LinkedIn Todd Bridges at EWN EWN NNBF Guidelines Project
