Recommendations / guidelines for
adaptations strategies in the water sector
• The awareness to CC impact should be fostered
• Water resource systems have to be adapted to CC even the
uncertainty in prediction is large
• The climate change impact to the flood should be considered
by adapting the design values of flood protection measures
Realisation of the solution
Realisation of flood protection Status : Insufficient flood protection under CC
• Guidelines and program for flood protection (e.g. Action Program 2020)
• Hydrological / hydrodynamic modelling of CC Impact
• Risk and benefits analysis
• Advanced communication strategies (Tools for ...)
• Decision making (Tools for ...)
=> Agreed adaptations of plannings by all stakeholder
The role and aim of the model
• The model will be used in two combined communication processes:
1. Communication with the decision makers (Round
table)
2. Communication with the stakeholders

• Contribution of the model to better understanding of adaptation
to CC • Cost-Benefit
Analysis in the approach as part of the communication
process to determine the decision
The communication process
• Survey of stakeholder groups
• Interviews before and after implementation of communication
process
• Meetings, workshops
• Information distributed by internet, newspapers, local TV
and radio.
=>Additional Outcome: Identification of needs for improved DSS and models
