The main objectives of the symposium are to bring together researchers, academicians, practitioners and decision makers working in related areas, to:

  • discuss about impacts of floods in coastal cities under climate change,
  • discuss and identify gaps in existing disaster mitigation policies and provide guidelines and strategies for improved policies for flood risk management in coastal cities under climate change condition, and
  • raise public awareness about risk of sea level rising and coastal flooding.

A workshop is planned for demonstration of several case studies on assessment of socio-economic impacts of floods in coastal cities in South and South-east Asia under climate change conditions, which are carried out under a APN supported project. Any other case studies related to the themes of the symposium are welcome for demonstration.
