About us

MoSSaiC was conceived and initiated by Malcolm Anderson and Liz Holcombe.

The MoSSaiC vision seeks to:

  • Local capacity-build in the broad area of slope stability whilst simultaneously seeking to minimise resource expenditure.
  • Achieve the vision by identifying key environmental project foci that can be undertaken by existing government-based staff and local communities.
  • Establish team structures that are key to delivering the vision - a management team that develops and communicates the vision; field teams that develop project strategies and implement specific project plans.

MoSSaiC is represented for contractual and agreement purposes by Professor Malcolm Anderson DSc, FICE, CEng, A.M. ASCE and Dr Liz Holcombe MSci.

We have developed a novel methodology, MoSSaiC™, for low-cost, community-based landslide risk reduction.

We originate, partner and co-supervise projects employing the MoSSaiC™ methodology. Organisations MoSSaiC has partnered and co-supervised projects with, under appropriate MOU’s and similar instruments, include World Bank, Government of St Lucia, US Agency for International Development [USAID] and the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States [OECS].
