Combining green-blue-grey infrastructure for flood mitigation and enhancement of cobenefits

An increment of urban flood risk in many areas around the globe is expected. Thus appropriate flood risk management is crucial. Although strong evidence exists demonstrating that green-blue infrastructure is a sustainable solution to reduce flooding, its adoption is still slow. The objective of this research is to help decision-makers to adopt adaptation strategies to cope with flood risk while achieving other benefits. This work contributes to enhance planning processes for flood mitigation combining green-blue-grey measures. It provides tools and knowledge to facilitate holistic decision-making, in order to ensure safe and liveable urban spaces for current and future conditions.
