Abstract

The presentation focuses on ideas of the “peri-urban” in terms of process, concept and features rather than as a fixed geographical space around the city. The peri-urban is then used as a conceptual lens to study rural-urban relationships and flows of water/water security and insecurity. Details of peri-urban climate and water management in Kathmandu (Nepal) and Khulna (Bangladesh) are expanded upon. Planning and governance must consider the interrelationship between rural and urban water flows.
