Beschreibung

This edited book highlights the innovative ways in which a wide range of public and private stakeholders are collaborating and partnering in an endeavour to co-develop solutions that aim to improve the resilience of communities to flooding. Despite increased investments in flood risk management, government efforts in mitigating flood disasters remain under severe pressure and focusing on community and stakeholder engaged support systems is fundamental in encouraging and upscaling local resilience strategies. At the core of this book is a demonstration of how countries are leveraging partnerships to mobilise resources for both community and government action, in enhancing flood resilience at the local, regional and national levels, before, during and after flood events. Insights from the positive impact of partnerships are shared for adaptation to enhance resource mobilisation within global and country-specific resilience frameworks. The chapters seek to cut across people, industry, the built environment and the natural environment in highlighting how challenges in partnerships are managed through effective communication, administrative and coordination practices, knowledge co-production, monitoring and evaluation, social incentives and green financing and funding. This book offers disaster managers, policy makers, government officials and researchers in environmental and civil engineering, natural resources management, geography and the built environment a deeper understanding of how partnerships can be leveraged as an alternative management approach for mitigating flood hazards. Disaster management volunteer groups, community flood risk management groups, civil society organizations (CSOs) and Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) would also find the book useful for its targeted and inclusive content.
