Resources

Summary

This publication is the third module of the resource manual on flash flood risk management which focuses on community-based management and non-structural measures. These were followed by training of the trainers’ manual based on the resource materials and dealing with structural measures. The publication was produced as a part of the project ‘Flash Flood Risk Reduction-Strengthening Capacity in the Hindu Kush Himalayas’, supported by the United States Agency for International Development, Office for Foreign Disaster Assistance (USAID/OFDA), with the hope that this new volume will be useful for practitioners and will make a meaningful contribution towards reducing disaster risk and providing greater physical security for the people of this vulnerable region.
