Course Materials of the International Postgraduate Course on Flood Management
Absztrakt
The Course Materials of the International Postgraduate Course on Flood Management have been developed as the contents of a specialized training on flood management for the Danube region, supported by a Danube Strategic Project Fund (DSPF) project.
The background was the 6th measure of the Danube Region Operative Flood Management and Cooperation Programme adopted in 2015 to develop a training network, defined as essential and later incorporated into the Danube Region Flood Risk Management Plan of ICPDR.
The main objective of the project was to develop a harmonized, international postgraduate course on flood and flood risk management that integrates the knowledge of participating partners and involves the expertise of Danube region professionals, to fill the gap in the implementation of the EU Floods Directive and the Danube Basin Flood Risk Management Plan created by the lack of the dissemination of specific knowledge and practical solutions in flood protection.
The Course Materials are the result of this project, and they help harmonize flood risk management methodologies through providing a comprehensive flood management curriculum based on state-of-the-art research results and extensive operative experience of the authors, offering an international overview.
