Frequently asked questions
What is the Resilient Rivers Blueprint?
The Resilient Rivers Blueprint identifies the key principles and components to improve the capacity of our rivers and communities to recover from disturbances and return to a healthy state.
The Blueprint has been developed with the founding partners to outline a pathway to achieve resilience of rivers – its basins and communities. River basin organisations from around the world are invited to become signatories to the Blueprint, identifying their commitment to developing river basin-specific roadmaps in their respective areas/regions. The Blueprint is used to guide the development of Resilient Rivers Roadmaps for river basin organisations worldwide.
