The Catchment Based Approach (CaBA), is an initiative to drive collaborative water management across England. The latest (2018-2019) report showing the benefits and a summary of the environmental work achieved under this initiative has been published. The benefits arising include improvements to water quality, addressing flood risk and water scarcity and empowering local communities through citizen science. Furthermore, the report states that during the period of 2018 to 2019, for every £1 directly invested by Government, CaBA partnerships have raised £3.20 of co-finance from a diverse range of non-Governmental funders.
