Students at Elwood Canal: Field work included a panel with field experts to explore the wider catchment, understand where some of the other solutions lie and an opportunity to understand and analyse catchment-based water sensitive asset and urban planning.
Lalitha Ramachandran illustrates the adaptive pathway planning approach in rethinking Elwood as a canal estate as students engage in topics that surround coastal buffer zones, flood resilient built form/housing, and transportation access.
