Zusammenfassung |
Adaptation to complex and unforeseen events requires enhancing the links
between planning and preparedness phases to reduce future risks in the most
efficient way. In this context, the legal–administrative and cultural
context has to be taken into account. This is why four case study areas of
the CHANGES1 project (Nehoiu Valley in Romania, Ubaye Valley in France, Val
Canale in Italy, and Wieprzówka catchment in Poland) serve as examples
to highlight currently implemented risk management strategies for land-use
planning and emergency preparedness. The focus is particularly on flood and
landslide hazards. The strategies described in this paper were identified by
means of exploratory and informal interviews in each study site. Results
reveal that a dearth or, in very few cases, a weak link exists between
spatial planners and emergency managers. Management strategies could benefit
from formally intensifying coordination and cooperation between emergency
services and spatial planning authorities. Moreover, limited financial funds
urge for a more efficient use of resources and better coordination towards
long-term activities. The research indicates potential benefits to
establishing or, in some cases, strengthening this link through contextual
changes, e.g., in organizational or administrative structures, that
facilitate proper interaction between risk management and spatial planning.
It also provides suggestions for further development in the form of
information and decision support systems as a key connection point.
