Response to flood risk in Cape Town : preparing or responding to flooding?

During the apartheid era, black Africans were separated from white populations, and in Cape Town moved to the Cape Flats area. These areas are prone to flooding because of their geographical locations, and this is where most of the poorest people of the city are concentrated. Flooding is inherently common and exposes people to health and safety risks, destroys property and has numerous secondary impacts on people’s livelihoods. The study focused on three levels of response to flooding, examining how different groups representative of local community residents and NGOs work with disaster relief management (DRMC) and engage in flood response.Bachelor's degre
