Humber 2100+ - Shaping governance & future adaptation

A partnership working group on governance took place in April, and a second took place in June, with a focus on defining actions for all partners to take forward and developing a common understanding of potential governance models. Work on the strategic approach to asset management is also continuing to progress. The project team have also published a stakeholder facing publication on gov.uk. This summarises the evidence from the ‘Understand Risk’ phase of work.

The Humber Adaptation Pathways project design phase is continuing with activity for the coming months focused on developing the method for pathway refinement. Two workshops are also being held through the summer/early autumn. The intention is that work will support partner understanding of the implications of the ‘Understanding Risk’ evidence and allow them to participate in pathway development in the future, as well as shaping elements of the pathway design process.

In February, the Humber 2100+ team and partners participated in a visit from the Climate Change Committee. The team were able to share work done so far on the Humber to support adaptation and also set out future challenges and opportunities.
