 This paper proposes a new conceptual framework for modeling socio-hydrology which combines catchment hydrology, population, economics, environment, socio-economic sensitivity and collective response. This framework is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the interconnectedness of these factors and their impact on catchment systems. The proposed framework also introduces three macro-scale parameters that enable comparison of different catchment conditions and contexts. This article was authored by Y. L. Shafii, M. Sevapelin, M.
