Research & Consulting
Providing technical research and advisory services across climate change, disaster resilience, water resources, and forecasting and early warning systems extending into geo-spatial analysis and mapping, M&E and impact studies, environment and social studies, engineering and design, hydropower sector studies, and capacity building activities that translate research findings into actionable guidance for clients and communities.
Climate Change
Assessing climate change impacts on water, ecosystems and communities across Himalayan and mountain river systems- downscaling global climate models to local catchment scales, projecting future flood and drought regimes, and translating findings into adaptation strategies for infrastructure, agriculture and disaster risk governance.
