FRAMES: Flood Resilient Areas by Multi-Layered Safety

Floods are among the world’s most common and most devastating natural hazards and have affected millions of people in Europe since the beginning of this century. Changes in our climate are increasing the risk of river and coastal flooding because sea levels are rising and rainfall patterns are becoming more extreme. Increasing flood risks call for more innovative approaches to minimize the impacts of such events. Therefore, five countries bordering the North Sea Region, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom, have joint forces in the Interreg North Sea Region project FRAMES.

FRAMES

FRAMES stands for Flood Resilient Areas by Multi-layEred Safety. Traditionally, structural and static solutions were the preferred management option to defend against flooding. However, it is more and more recognized that protection alone will not be enough to make areas climate-resilient. It is also imperative to decrease the effects of flooding and look at spatial planning and disaster management as well. This so-called Multi-Layer Safety (MLS) approach is thus based on three layers: 1) protection, the primary dike system; 2) sustainable spatial planning that decreases the loss should a flood occur; and 3) disaster management, the organizational aspects related to a flood event. Our project added a fourth layer to this approach: 4) resilient recovery. Together, these four layers can be tailored to local areas in order to minimize flood damage.

In FRAMES, we looked at how Multi-Layer Safety, or MLS, can improve the overall resilience of areas, communities and authorities in 16 pilot areas. Using a transnational learning evaluation approach, all pilots projects were evaluated and compared. Next to that, transnational focus groups were organized to evaluate and learn from transnational results. This learning process allowed us to generate new insights to support future decision making and show innovative solutions to improve society’s ability to cope with flooding. FRAMES ran from October 2016 till July 2020.

-Sustainable North Sea Region: Protecting against climate change and preserving the environment
-FRAMES addresses the shared territorial challenge that on-going climate change results in
-increasing sea levels and extreme rainfall patterns for areas and communities in the North Sea
-Region. The physical, economic and social effects of floods are likely to increase further.
-Traditional flood prevention measures (physical infrastructure) are expensive and may not be
-sustainable for the future. There will never be enough resources to protect every single citizen
-from flooding, but if we smartly combine resilience measures we can minimise impact. No one
-organisation or member state has the knowledge to develop sustainable solutions for these
-challenges alone. For this, we use the Multi-Layer Safety (MLS) concept as a starting point. The
-MLS concept is a policy strategy that integrates measures for: prevention, mitigation via spatial
-planning and emergency response. These layers are traditionally managed by different
-authorities and sectors, but through MLS, the barriers are lifted and the stakeholders jointly
-apply the most effective combination of solutions. The MLS principles are being acknowledged
-by more and more authorities and practitioners across the NSR, but have thus far not been
-developed in a transnational way. The FRAMES partners are experimenting with MLS-related
-concepts and will build on this experience to realise sustainable strategies and improve the
-capacity of authorities and society to cope with flooding.
