The document discusses water sensitive urban design and sustainable water management. It covers drivers for resilience and adaptation to water issues in cities. Examples are provided of projects that aim to design with water as a resource, including stormwater management, reuse of water, and designs that integrate water systems with other urban infrastructure. Approaches from locations like the UK, China, and Australia are referenced.
