Social vulnerability and flood exposure: How a joint assessment can provide insights for flood risk governance in Pakistan.

本研究旨在研究如何开发一种最先进的方法来联合调查洪水风险和社会脆弱性，并通过观察巴基斯坦的洪水风险降低和治理干预措施，确定高社会洪水风险降低和治理干预措施有助于减少社会脆弱性和洪水风险的地区。将在巴基斯坦开伯尔-普赫图赫瓦省进行三个不同的案例研究。将设计一个概念性框架，将洪水风险、社会脆弱性和治理等组成部分结合起来。将制定一套指标，收集和评估数据，以确定洪水风险、社会脆弱性和风险治理干预措施。最后，它将讨论开发的框架和指标如何为决策者和从业者提供指导，以设计有效的减少洪水风险和治理干预措施

This research aims to investigate how a state-of-the-art approach can be developed to jointly investigate flood exposure and social vulnerability and identify areas where high social flood risk reduction and governance interventions have contributed to reducing social vulnerability and flood exposure, by looking at flood risk reduction and governance interventions in Pakistan. Three different case studies will be conducted in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, province of Pakistan. A conceptual framework will be designed, incorporating the components of flood exposure, social vulnerability, and governance. A set of indicators will be developed and data will be collected and evaluated to frame flood exposure, social vulnerability, and risk governance interventions. Lastly, it will discuss how the developed framework and indicators provide guidance to both policymakers and practitioners for designing effective flood risk reduction and governance interventions
