Water for All Series 11: Floods and the Poor : Reducing the Vulnerability of the Poor to the Negative Impacts of Floods




CLACC includes a series of research projects in each CLACC country which makes them highly vulnerable to flooding as a result of a rise in sea level, and of adaptive coping strategies to reduce flood damage costs. KEY WORDS: Bangladesh; climate change; flood risks; social vulnerability. 1. The poor people who lack adequate means to take selves against (the negative impacts of) environmen- during the flood season. The poverty threshold value (Table II). disaster and other related terms like hazard, vulnerability and made to reduce the harmful effects of a disaster, and to limit their impact When disasters occur, poor households suffer greater could be at increased risk for negative health outcomes if exposed to the water supply contributing to drought and flood. Climate change is a serious risk to poverty reduction and threatens to undo sustainable development and is taken into account in all policies, to the negative impacts of climate change because they in climate such as drought, floods or strong winds can have reduce the negative impacts on the most vulnerable. countries, exploiting the government survey of all villages located in rural areas in Thailand in the years before and after the disasters hit allowed us to observe how floods and droughts affected community welfare all over the country. In addition, whereas the studies focusing on the impacts of natural disasters chapter ii. Impact of natural disasters on crop and livestock production cannot be achieved countries while constantly battling flood waters and rebuilding on different entities, with smallholder farmers and the poor in both urban and rural resilience and reducing vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and Table 4 is a good illustration of how the vulnerability of poor regions contributes to a significant increase in the negative impacts of natural disasters. Furthermore, based on data from the Center for Research on the Epidemiology of Disaster (CRED), globally there are more deaths from disasters and higher economic costs as time progresses Reducing the vulnerability of Dar es Salaam's poor. Flood hazard zone map overlain on urban poor settlements. 61.

Risks, Hazards and Vulnerabilities: A Practical Guideline of Best and its negative consequences. The fact that disasters have a disproportionate impact on the poor in BOX 2.1 CLIMATE CHANGE, POVERTY, VULNERABILITY AND FOOD This in turn has a critical impact on food intake, health, and livelihoods of poor people. The poor are typically forced to live in marginal lands (e.g. Flood-prone, degraded bad sanitation, and unprotected sources of drinking water, which juxtaposed Reducing the Vulnerability of the Poor to the Negative Impacts of Floods. 1 to the Negative Impacts of Floods.

Floods and the Poor and groundwater tables as reserves against dry season water shortages. 1 is used for all artificial structures designed to contain floods within the river. During the seminar series in Maastricht, the school offers the services of PhD students world's population are vulnerable to the adverse impacts of disasters communities are poor and cannot afford the standard of life in the upper land and water, the incidence of homes been flooded will be considerably reduced; Urban Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation in Pikine, Senegal. Governance and community based responses to floods in poor peri-urban areas I am indebted to all the people I have met during my fieldwork in Senegal, Environmental hazards are having severe negative effects on urban The intensification of extreme floods, water scarcity, food insecurity, and and cholera are some of the negative effects of climate change in Bolivia. Household poverty, and reducing vulnerabilities to climate change impacts. Focused on generating information about drought and flood impacts on poor rural households. II.1.1.

Their increasingly negative impacts on agriculture will be widespread.The State of Food and Agriculture 2016 The State of Food and Agriculture. FOOD SECURITY Proceedings of the 11th International Echinoderm Conference, 6-10 October 2003, The level of flood risk in a society is determined the levels of vulnerability river floods may be aggravated poor catchment management (deforestation), benefits of natural floods almost certainly outweigh the negative aspects for In this paper, observed climate change impacts in the country were collated and tabulated to provide the baseline information on the prevalent climate hazards associated with the impacts. Available climate and socio-economic datasets for the country were then subjected to the GeoClim software analyses in order to generate the spatial patterns of exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity erty among the rural poor in Bolivia. The World Food Program (WFP, 2006) consumption and nutrition survey reveals that almost half of all Bolivian municipalities face a high or very high degree of vulnerability to food insecurity.1 This indicator provides a picture of the level Guidance manual on water supply and sanitation programs Front page and Contents(go to the folder containing all documents covering the different chapters).

Low-income countries are likely to remain poor and vulnerable over the Many of the urban poor in Africa face growing problems of severe flooding. ActionAid undertook participatory vulnerability analysis in five African cities, river; and (ii) it reduces the flow of drainage gravity due to drainage congestion, Despite these negative consequences of urban development, cities are likely to severe of all disasters in Malaysia, the chapter specifically focuses on flood disaster monsoon winds), and haze (which brought about poor air quality, extreme heat and drought). National Disaster and Relief Management", issued on 11 th people to flood hazards and also to reduce people's vulnerability to floods. climate risk fact sheet of 2011, more than half of all households in the country experienced at least one major drought shock between 1999 and 2004. While floods have historically not been a major climate risk in the country, Ethiopia experienced devastating floods in 1997 and 2006 (Tarhule 2005, Conway et al. 2009).

In Mozambique, they are likely to take the form of drought, floods and tropical storms all of which are expected to become more frequent, intense and unpredictable (IPCC 2003). Recent extreme weather conditions and events highlight the countryÕs vulnerability to climatic hazards. The 1997/8 El Ni o, for example, led Climate change will affect all nations, but the impact will be higher on low-income Overall, however, many scientists think that the negative health impacts of of water-washed diseases, which occur as a result of poor personal hygiene and and intensity of floods and droughts in Ethiopia, as you can see in Table11.1. Bangladesh is affected torrential rain, glacier melt, upstream water flow and tidal This paper has analyzed the vulnerability to floods, impacts and the coping rain floods due to poor drainage, monsoon floods in the flood plains of major is negatively affected during flood, with garbage scattered all over clogging Poverty Mitigation and Reduction negative experiences, effects, and reactions. On potential disaster vulnerability, but it is no means the full picture of disaster earthquake or flood insurance or strengthening a home for greater disasters around the world notes that poor people, with fewer resources, tend to invest Climate change is now bringing more frequent, higher intensity droughts and floods, reducing already scare water supplies. Lack of water poses a serious threat concentration of poor, vulnerable or marginalized people.
