Natural Flood Management

By Monaghan County Libraries

Inishowen was hit by a severe flooding event that left many areas devasted around the peninsula. Since that day, the Inishowen Rivers Trust in collaboration with various public and community stakeholders have been engaged in a significant effort to improve flood awareness across Inishowen and to also try and pave the way for practical solutions aimed at building more resilience across the Inishowen landscape in the face of future flood events. This presentation will introduce the concept of ‘Natural Flood Management’ with Dr. Mary Bourke from Trinity College Dublin, explore some of the ways we can manage flood risk more sensitively across our river catchments and examine how the Inishowen Rivers Trust have been implementing measures on the ground in Co. Donegal with Trish Murphy of Inishowen Rivers Trust.
