Flood Risk Management in Germany
Authors: Swenja Surminski, Viktor Roezer and Maryam Golnaraghi

While recognising the gradual shift towards a more anticipatory system focused on risk reduction, prompted by recent floods, it highlights the lack of strategic focus on how to achieve flood resilience and the prevailing underinsurance across the country.
