Risk management and disaster response

At HYCEN, risk management integrates multiple components aimed at the identification, prevention, and response to failures and disasters associated with water scarcity or excess in natural and urban systems.

Protecting lives, livelihoods, and ecosystems under both normal operating conditions and extreme events requires a comprehensive approach that combines preventive, corrective, and forward-looking measures to reduce risk and strengthen disaster management processes
