Zusammenfassung |
This paper attempts to provide a decision support framework that can help
risk managers in urban areas to improve their decision-making processes
related to sustainable management. Currently, risk management strategies
should no longer be selected based primarily on economic and technical
insight. Managers must address the sustainability of risk management by
assessing the impacts of their decisions on the sustainable development of a
given territory. These assessments require tools that allow ex ante
comparisons of the effectiveness and the likely economic, social and
ecological impacts of the alternative management strategies. Therefore, this
paper reports a methodological and operational framework, which aims to
incorporate sustainability principles in a particular decision by taking all
the dimensions that affect sustainability into account. This paper is
divided into two main parts: one on the theoretical aspects of the proposed
methodology and the other on its application to a flood risks management
case in a municipality located in Meurthe-et-Moselle county (France). The
results of the case study have shown how the methodology can be suitable for
determining the most sustainable decision. |
