Stantec joins the FloodAction Coalition

Stantec has signed up to support the FloodAction Coalition as a founding member. The goal of the Coalition, which is led by industry membership group The Conduit, is to help promote the use of nature-based solutions and bolster the confidence needed for large-scale public and private investment in natural flood management across the country.

Flooding is the UK’s fastest-growing climate risk, costing billions of pounds each year and disrupting lives and livelihoods. Using its extensive experience working across natural and built environments around the world, Stantec will provide technical knowledge and expertise to help steer the narrative towards national, nature-based flood resilience. 

Andrew Johns, technical director at Stantec, said: “Natural flood management holds a wide range of benefits for communities and habitats, from improving mental health to driving economic growth. We’re excited to continue demonstrating the value of nature-based solutions within this coalition.”

The FloodAction Coalition unites insurers, landowners, and investors to create a £1 billion market for water resilience by 2028—turning nature-based solutions into scalable, reliable infrastructure for a climate-resilient future.

Stantec is deeply involved in the development of nature-based solutions in the UK and around the world.
