Layer 1- Protection - Defence

Layer 1 is all about "Keeping water away from people" by (combinations of) hard infrastructural works (dikes, dams, etc.) or softer (nature based) solutions (dunes, retention in nature areas, etc.).

Below, we list the tools used in the FRAMES pilots in layer 1.When available, we provide links to external sites where the tool is explained in more detail.

Name of tool Main objective Description Applied in pilot
Sjabloon:Internal link=PR 00274 "This tool provides insight in MLS resilience measures and how these possibly influence other systems." "Results from the FRAMES pilots are integrated into a roadmap developed by HZ University that identifies policy actions to support the development of diversified strategies for flood resilience." Results from all pilots were used
Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways (DAPP) approach "Use when developing adaptive plans for the future." "The Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways (DAPP) approach aims to support the development of an adaptive plan that is able to deal with conditions of deep uncertainties. " All pilots in Denmark, Assens, Vejle and Roskilde, applied an adapted version of this tool.
School programs to increase flood awareness "Self-assessment tools for community resilience + communication." "Increase awareness of students, teachers and parents." Pilots in Belgium: (Ninove, Geraardsbergen and Denderleeuw)
Sjabloon:Name=Social media "Communication and dissemination." "To increase and improve the flood awareness and self-efficacy of citizens and organizations, social media channels are advised to be used: YouTube Twitter, Facebook, local press (TV, newspaper, magazines, radio), websites, newsletters, brochures, leaflets, events and meetings." All pilots
Vision and Action Plan Develop a vision and action plan to climate/flood proof the area/region with specific spatial adaptation measures All pilots in Belgium (Ninove, Geraardsbergen and Denderleeuw)
Community approach: ClimateJust Free webtool that can be used for community analysis. "Climate Just is an information tool designed to help with the delivery of equitable responses to climate change at the local level. Its main focus is to assist the development of socially just responses to the impacts of extreme events, such as flooding." All pilots in the United Kingdom
GIS-analysis of social vulnerability indicators to explore social justice issues related to MLS Explore the social (in)justice to floods through an analysis of the social characteristics of the exposed populations by using a GIS-analysis of the spatial distribution of the different social vulnerability indicators. All pilots in Belgium (Ninove, Geraardsbergen and Denderleeuw)
SHAPE "The 'Strategic Health Asset Planning and Evaluation', or SHAPE, is a web enabled, evidence based application that informs and supports the strategic planning of services and assets across a whole health economy. Its analytical and presentation features can help service commissioners to determine the service configuration that provides the best affordable access to care." All pilots in the United Kingdom
