Understanding and Supporting the Flood Recovery Process

This is a project funded through the Joint Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Research Programme to support strategy delivery.

People, communities, and governments tend to devote much effort to preparing for and responding to flooding, even in the face of the longer-term economic and health effects along the path to recovery. This project aims to consider the current state and arrangements of the flood recovery process and identify where opportunities to improve the current arrangements and practice might lie. This project would help to promote effective recovery plans, it is not intended to impose new, additional policies or guidance on the flood recovery process.
