LC 00034

Specific outcomes

Concrete outputs:

• Improved Kent SHAPE Atlas and risk maps
• Community vulnerability data set
• Suite of reports on the Socio-spatial analysis and risk assessments
• SWIMS System
• Climate Change Risk and Impact Assessment for Kent & Medway

Expected outputs

• Use the data to engage with stakeholders and increase their awareness of and preparedness for flood events.
• Stakeholders to review and update their emergency plans based on flood risk present for each site (interview pilot managers, 2019).

Flood risk management strategies (FRMS)

The table belows shows the activities that have been undertaken during the FRAMES project in the Kent pilot for every layer of the MLS approach.

Layers of MLS	Before FRAMES	During FRAMES	After FRAMES
Protection/ defense	Dikes, levees, sluices	There is a greater emphasis on hard infrastructure and less on nature-based solutions (Baseline monitor, 2017) NFM are implemented in the KCC through another FRAMES pilot (interview pilot managers, 2019)	Hard infrastructure is not considered in FRAMES. There is interest in implementing more nature-based solutions. (Baseline monitor, 2017) NFM are implemented in Kent through another FRAMES pilot (interview pilot managers, 2019)
Pro-action/ prevention via spatial planning	Low attention	The processes/methods of spatial planning are well known, but not as frequently applied. (Baseline monitor, 2017) Use of spatial planning tools to reassess the flood risks of care homes and schools in KCC (interview pilot managers, 2019)	Increase resilience of critical health/social care infrastructure and build capacities among local organizations/institutions and local communities (Baseline monitor, 2017)
Preparation & response	Managed by KRF/KCC emergency planners.	Community and spatial analysis of flood risk (care homes and schools) in Kent (interview pilot managers, 2019)	Increase the flood risk awareness of local vulnerable communities (care homes and schools) with emergency plans and on how to respond to flood events (interview pilot managers, 2019)
Recovery	Moderate attention	Increase the flood risk awareness of health and social care homes with advice and making sure they have emergency plans in place (interview pilot managers, 2019)	Awareness raising and stakeholder engagement is key to improve resilient recovery. Provide guidance to care homes to develop/update their emergency plans, what kind of measures to implement and how to fund them (interview pilot managers, 2019).
