One of our research is about the new practices using the banks of irrigation canals.
These canals are the backdrop for rapidly developing urban uses and practices. For one, the water is increasingly used to irrigate private gardens, municipal green spaces and golf courses. On a recreational level, the canals have become a site for numerous practices in recent years: walking, jogging, cycling, horseback riding, fishing, as well as swimming and kayaking
Dear Chantal,
I attach you some documents related to irrigation, multifunctionality andinteractions between competing water uses. If you want more information in an specific way, please, do not heritage to tell me and I will do a more detailed search on my references.
Sincerely,
Sandra.
Thank you very much Sandra.
I hope we'll can work together in the future.
Sincerely
Chantal
Dear Chantal,
After our collaboration in the Marseille congress and the consequent publication ccordinated for you and edited in Quae, I think that we have interests in common and I am at your disposal for any collaboration (since a month, I am a doctor ;-).
For example, in this moment, we are working with colleague Anna Roca (from Agroterritori Foundation) in a paper for Cybergeo about the PAC and its environmentalist function...
Sincerely,
Sandra.
Dear Chantal,
In Ancient Sri Lanka they had a good irrigation system and now they are converting into water based transportation destinations or tourist destinations with jogging tracks/side walks. For your convenience i name some of the projects in Sri Lankan context. I am sure you will definitely find many articles on them.
1. Hamilton Canal Development Project
2. Diyatha Uyana urban development project
3. Diyawanna jogging track
4.Gampaha jogging track
5. Boralesgamuwa jogging track.
Almost all the above projects are adjacent to water bodies. And they are newly developed. There are some interesting arguments going on. Hope you will find them interesting. I hope theses case studies guide you to a different direction of thoughts.
Thanks
Dear Nayomi,
Thank you very much for your answer and for the informations about the Sri Lankan project. Do you know any publications about these projects?
And can you say me what is your personal feald reserach? Are you interesting working with us for an eventual future project?
Sincerely
Chantal
Yep.. I am interested in qualitative research but much more bias to spatial / town planning. I would like to contribute..
I have some doc about the above Sri Lankan projects. Unfortunately not now. Anyway you can just google using the above names you will find lot of articles as most of them transformed Sri Lanka to a different direction
