Sound managed retreat proposals also require comprehensive policies that ensurethat the rights of all parties affected are upheld. Those who relocate must be guaranteed clean water,nutritious food, and safe housing—all at reasonable cost. Truly equitable and sustainable managedretreat calls for dialog and collaboration between community members and leaders, politicians, cityplanners, engineers, and environmentalists.
