Community Involvement in UK Catchment Management
A 'Review of Current Knowledge' (ROCK) booklet has been recently published the Foundation for Water Research for review. Co-authored by Eleanor Starkey and Geoff Parkin of Newcastle University, this booklet reviews how communities are becoming more involved in the management of the water environment than ever before. Case studies around citizen science and the Haltwhistle Burn project are provided.
The booklet can be downloaded for free using the following link: http://www.fwr.org/Catchment/frr0021.pdf
