This report presents the findings of a study on loss and damage resulting from the Melamchi flood of June 15, 2021. The flood resulted from a combination of anthropogenic and climatic factors that occurred along the Melamchi River Basin. Triggered by intense precipitation upstream, the flooding led to cascading effects along the river channels, resulting in a complex interplay between landslides, river damming, and debris deposition. The findings are drawn from an extensive field visit in the Helambu Rural Municipality and the Melamchi Municipality.
