Drainage and stormwater management strategies for low-income urban communities
Open accessAbstract
Based upon a review of the literature, this paper focuses on the provision of drainage systems and stormwater management strategies in lowincome urban settlements. Although engineered infrastructure is a necessary component for drainage of urban runoff, non-structural approaches are important complementary measures, focusing on actions to prevent and mitigate problems related to flooding, as well as those related to pollution and deterioration in environmental health conditions. As these rely predominantly on behavioural changes to be effective, a participatory approach is recommended within a strategic framework of urban stormwater planning.

Flood risk and other negative impacts of urban stormwater in poor neighborhoods are often disproportionately high globally due to housing and planning practices that restrict impoverished people to living in less 'desirable' areas, including floodplains.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
