PARADes
Ghana is strongly affected by flooding. These annual events lead to disasters harming thousands of people, especially those with low income in urban areas.
The Flood Competence Center is partner of the joint research project “Participatory assessment of flood disaster prevention and development of an adapted coping system in Ghana - PARADeS”, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research of Germany. The aim of the project is to gain the resilience concerning flooding.
FLOODLABELGHANA will provide and spread the required information to enable the community members to prevent their property and home. For this purpose the concept of FLOODLABEL will be transferred and adapted to the climatological conditions, cultural aspects, varying building techniques and structure of the administration.
