Practical Action Nepal implemented SEWIN in Banke and Bardiya District and then extended and scaled up to Chitwan and Nawalparari Districts in the course of time. Practical Action promoted community-based disaster risk reduction programmes to reduce disaster risk of the most vulnerable communities in flood-prone districts. The specific objective was to strengthen the capacity of vulnerable flood-prone communities and district authorities in Nepal to understand, mitigate and respond to risk, and benefit through the use of flood EWS.
