Introduction Global change Climate change Floods in a changing climate
Risk management as adaptation Systems approach An example

INTRODUCTIONGlobal change7|
Global change Population growth Alterations in climate Changes in land use Changes in oceans or other water resources Changes in ecological systems
They are all directly related to flooding
INTRODUCTIONGlobal change8|
FLOOD RISKManagement – Principle 111|
Risk of flooding Uncertainties Subjective-objective risk confusion Move from risk to resilience
Flood risk management ≡ Adaptation to global change
FLOOD RISKManagement – Principle 212|
The system in focus is a social system of: Individuals Organizations Societies and Environment.
Flows connecting the subsystems: Resource, and Information.
Information is used to determine resource use by subsystems.
Values provide meaning to information flows.
