    NERC and partners have powered a shift from traditional flood defence strategies to sustainable resilience. Our latest case study highlights 20 years of progress in Natural Flood Management. Discover the timeline of this research and policy journey: orlo.uk/F4Rwp
    Screenshot from Impact story, highlighting a quote from the Environment Agency Research Manager, Floods and Coastal Erosion Risk Management:

"NERC’s investment in research, and partnership approach to working with us and Defra, has played an influential role in changes to flood and coastal erosion strategy and investment.

The academic research provided essential evidence that increased confidence in the effectiveness of NFM measures and steered the design of new investments."
