The Slope Restoration initiative in Delhi addressed recurring micro-flooding at the lane level, caused by eroding slopes, clogged outfalls, and an overflowing mine pit at the base of the Aravali Hills in Nepali Camp. The pit, receiving wastewater mixed with solid waste from two informal drains, had silted over time, reducing its permeability and carrying capacity. CURE, in collaboration with the community, government officials, and biodiversity experts, developed a comprehensive solution combining bio-engineering, ecological restoration, and community action. The approach included slope cleaning to improve permeability, bioremedial treatment of wastewater through cascades filled with gravel and sand, and stabilization using deep-rooted native trees and plants. Floating reed beds made of bamboo, coir, and coconut logs, along with wetland species and earthworms, were introduced to naturally purify the water. Community-driven efforts, such as door-to-door waste collection and the creation of a playground atop the slope to prevent further dumping, reinforced the project’s sustainability. The intervention successfully reduced runoff speed, minimized flooding, revived biodiversity—evidenced by the return of ducks—and created green buffers that enhanced safety and livability. Despite challenges, such as pigs damaging plantations, the project significantly improved resilience and environmental health for the settlement.
