Multi-level capacity building for flood management
2011
Bucharest (Romania)
Romania is a member state of the European Union since 2007. Like other EU member states, Romania has to implement the EU Flood Directive. The implementation needs to be carried out mainly on regional level. However, in many cases, the regional authorities lack financial, managerial, and content related capacity to make sure the implementation is successful. Especially the
implementation of the second phase of the EU Flood Directive (flood hazard & risk maps) leads to capacity problems. This project was aimed at the increase of capacity for regional water authorities concerning flood risk modeling, damage
calculating, risk assessment and mapping.
