PROJECT NOAH'S ARK

Project 'Amphibious Resilience'

Our project focuses on the installation of amphibious retrofits, an innovative enhancement of the traditional practice of elevating houses on stilts. This initiative is in response to the annual flooding cycle experienced in specific geographic locations. Unfortunately, the traditional practice is ill-equipped to handle the increasingly severe flooding caused by climate change.

 

Amphibious retrofits serve as a crucial solution to bolster flood resilience in the physical structure of homes. They protect the possessions and lives of households while minimizing traumatic disruptions to the local culture and economy of these communities.
