New Deep South Challenge research on flood management funding shows a need for a more coordinated approach between regional councils, particularly with more storms and sea-level rise on the horizon. This seminar with Patrick Walsh (Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research) will explore council-run "flood mitigation schemes" - both their effectiveness in reducing flood damage and whether they're a fair way to manage flood risk.

The Deep South Challenge is proud to be a silver sponsor of the 2019 Eco Design Advisor Conference, with its focus on the convergence of housing and climate change. The conference will look at both the contribution housing makes to climate change and how our housing needs to respond to the impact of changing climate.
