Introduction
This course guides the application of resilient watershed management (RWM), combining natural resource management with risk, environment and livelihood considerations to deal with watershed issues in an integrated and multidisciplinary way. Resilient watershed management uses a landscape approach to risk reduction, where competing land-use needs are recognised and balanced in the context of the entire landscape, from the highest mountains to coastal plains.
The ultimate goal of resilient watershed management is a region’s sustainable development, or development that meets the present’s needs, without compromising future generations’ capacity to meet their own needs.

Course outline
Module1: Introduction to resilient watershed management
This learning step provides the fundamental principles for integrating the risk and landscape approach into watershed decision-making. It also introduces the case study’s context and characters to take you through the resilient watershed management planning process.
Module 2: Enabling environment and engage stakeholders
Module 3: Perform risk assessment
Module 4: Identifying measures for resilient watershed management
This learning step reviews how to select and prioritise measures to strengthen risk management in watersheds based on the previous assessments.
· RWM measures
· Enabling environment assessment and RWM measures
· Exposure assessment and RWM measures
Vulnerability assessment and RWM measures
Module 5: Develop and implement the resilient watershed management plan
The various assessments carried out during learning modules 1-4 and identifying the relevant risk reduction measures need to be compiled into a comprehensive plan. This learning step reviews how the resilient watershed management plan puts together the various components.
· Content of the RWM plan
· Scales of implementation
