Abstract
The plan outlines measures targeting flood prevention, risk reduction, preparedness, and awareness. Key areas include hazard mapping, risk assessments, and climate change impacts. The document covers legal and institutional frameworks, international cooperation, and bilateral agreements. The plan also addresses specific goals like preventing new risks, reducing existing risks, and enhancing public awareness and disaster response capabilities. The plan is structured around detailed assessments of potential flood-prone areas and the actions required to mitigate risks. It emphasizes a multi-level approach involving local, regional, and national authorities, along with international coordination. The document includes a range of strategies such as technical and natural flood retention measures, land-use planning, and disaster management. The evaluation of previous flood management plans is used to refine approaches and update methods based on lessons learned. The plan also ensures alignment with environmental goals and considers the implications of climate change, while promoting public participation and transparency in the planning process.
