Healthy rivers are an absolute necessity for productive and liveable cities. In fact, a river is perhaps the greatest natural asset of a city. The range of ecosystem services it provides a city, and the livelihoods it supports, are truly substantial. It, therefore, makes good sense for river cities to plan their development activities with due consideration for the river. The theme of this training module is centred precisely on this notion. It emphasizes on the role of a Master Plan to facilitate this harmony between a city and its river. The course will introduce its participants to the typical river-related challenges faced in urban areas and explain how a city's Master Plan can help address those challenges through seven planning instruments. The module is based on an advisory ‘Strategic Guidelines for Making River-Sensitive Master Plans’, prepared by the National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA) and the National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG). This training program is to build the capacities of planning and development specialists, planning consultants, practitioners, academicians, researchers and any other interested stakeholders on integrating river-sensitive thinking into the Master Plans for river cities. This module contains 180 minutes of video content. This training program is to build the capacities of representatives of state planning departments, city planning and development authorities, chief town planners, planning consultants; training institutes, academicians and researchers. Some of the key features of this module are self-paced courses, accessible free of charge, evaluation in the form of multiple-choice assessment, complemented with supplementary reading material, assessment based NMCG and NIUA certification.
