Journal Article
Cieslik, K., Shakya, P., Uprety, M., Dewulf, A., Russell, C., Clark, J., …Dhakal, A. (2019). Building Resilience to Chronic Landslide Hazard Through Citizen Science. Frontiers in Earth Science, 7(278), Article 278. https://doi.org/10.3389/feart.2019.00278

Landslides disrupt livelihoods, cause loss of human lives and damages to property and infrastructure. In the case of Nepal, the destructive impact of landslides has been steadily increasing as a result of the rising occupation of marginal land and ex...

Citizen science for hydrological risk reduction and resilience building (2017)
Journal Article
Paul, J. D., Buytaert, W., Allen, S., Ballesteros‐Cánovas, J. A., Bhusal, J., Cieslik, K., …Supper, R. (2018). Citizen science for hydrological risk reduction and resilience building. Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Water, 5(1), Article e1262. https://doi.org/10.1002/wat2.1262

In disaster risk management (DRM), an emerging shift has been noted from broad-scale, top-down assessments toward more participatory, community-based, bottom-up approaches. Arguably, nonscientist local stakeholders have always played an important rol... Read More about Citizen science for hydrological risk reduction and resilience building.
