Natural and Nature-Based Flood Management: A Green Guide introduces an integrated framework for flood management, drawing on policy, green infrastructure and conventional engineering to help communities adapt and better manage growing flood risk. World Wildlife Fund (WWF), in partnership with the U.S. Agency for International Development Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), has developed the Natural and Nature-Based Flood Management: A Green Guide (Flood Green Guide) to support communities at a local level in using natural and nature-based methods for flood risk management. The Flood Green Guide is based on collective experience, review and analysis of current and emerging flood management better practices, and on consultation with experts in engineering, water resource management, urban planning nad policy, and community engagement and development (WWF Description and Introduction).
