Sunk Island: Exploring Resilience
The Sunk Island: Exploring Resilience project aims to gather evidence on how a shift towards regenerative agriculture could support a transition to a more climate resilient future. By considering the interplay between social, economic and environmental factors we aim to identify actions that support long-term sustainable outcomes.
We have worked in collaboration with local graziers to trial different approaches on Environment Agency owned land that is subject to tidal flooding. The experiences, challenges and benefits, have been shared with others across the Humber region and beyond. Expanding our knowledge and evidence will also support Environment Agency and other organisations' work with rural and agricultural communities at the front line of these impacts.
This project is supported by Local Levy, through the Yorkshire Regional Flood & Coastal Commitee.
